Uri Shanar (CEO of Aniboom) predicts the future of the internet rests in "Creator-Generated Content"

"Getting the chance to be in front of industry professionals to pitch a project is something most people only dream about, indiegogo made it happen!"  

    
   - Nate Wollman, Producer of Vigilante Vigilante

"Pitch Camp was invaluable for me - not only the experience of talking about my films in front of a high-powered panel, but also having a packed audience of smart people - I could tell from their reactions what worked, and what didn't about my pitch, about my films and about my presentation."

  - Sarah Lefton, Executive Director / Producer of G-dcast

Here's a few samples of pitches. Big takeaway: Always be ready.  Always.
