PiTCH
In partnership with the ARRF and the ASA
PiTCH aims at connecting film authors, resident of the Fédération Wallonie-Bruxelles (the French-speaking Community of Belgium) with potential partners for their feature fiction project (producers, broadcasters, sales agents, distributors, …) during a pitch session.
The projects are submitted as a one-page long synopsis and are assessed and selected by a selection committee of authors.
The authors selected will benefit from individual training sessions with a pitch expert before pitching their project to an audience of film professionals.
