MEET & PITCH
Meet & Pitch is an initiative of ARRF and ASA, with the support of the BRIFF and SABAM.
The aim of Meet & Pitch is to bring together screenwriters and directors to find the right person to work with on a joint feature film project. The aim is to move the project forward so that it is ripe for submission to the CCA for writing assistance.
The Meet & Pitch is divided into three parts:
- Speed dating: a meeting between screenwriters and directors on Friday June 28, 2024 at Industry Corner at BRIFF. Each participant will have the opportunity to chat for 15 minutes with each of the other participants. The meeting will be followed by a drink to continue the discussion informally.
- Coaching: Four coaching sessions will follow over the course of 2024/2025, in preparation for the pitch. Two sessions will be dedicated to the script, while the third will focus on realization intentions. A final session will prepare projects for the BRIFF PiTCH event.
- PiTCH: project presentation to producers and other professionals at BRIFF 2025.
Entry requirements:
- Participants must be Belgian residents.
- The participant must speak French or be able to express him/herself in this language.
- The participant must have already written or directed at least one work broadcast in festivals, television, platforms or cinema.
- The participant confirms that he/she is available on the day of the speed dating event.
- The participant is aware that making a feature-length film is a long-term process and a human adventure. Forming a duo is not a commitment to be taken lightly.
- A maximum of 10 screenwriters and 10 directors will be selected for the speed dating session.
The call for projects is now closed.
