I’m writing this opinion piece in light of the recent Final Destination pitch where the directors faked their death during a pitch zoom call which landed them the job.
Now let’s not get ahead of ourselves and do just that. I see this news story as needing to stand out to have a successful pitch. As outlandish and wild as this is, it did get them the job so bravo but what can we do?
Aside from including all the things to have to have a successful pitch, what makes your pitch different and above the rest? Are you confident in your project? Are you confident in speaking about your project? Are you prepared? Have you sold them on your project?
The stunt that the director pulled off was in relation to Final Destination which evolves around sudden death after cheating death. So maybe by including something about your project within your pitch may boost your chances as your pitch more became more original.
