As Live Production Unit - The Pitch

Today we pitched our idea to a panel of 5 about our idea. Unfortunately we was not picked to go into production but we got some brilliant feedback that I will definitely take forward in the future. Everyone said our pitch was very strong and confident with clear delivery and great content produced. We were able to go into detail about all elements of the show overall and we all knew our idea in great detail inside and out. They recognised a lot of effort and thought had been put into the idea and it was shown from the booklets that were handed out and throughout the pitch.

There were a few issues with the idea itself. They all felt that it contrasted as the subject was a bit taboo although it was meant for a family audience and they couldn't quite see how that was going to tie in together. I explained that it was more of an underlying issue and the show was more about routing for your gender and should be seen more like a battle of the sexes which they said made more sense. There was also some problems with the channel we were trying to get it commissioned for as they felt it was more itv than ITV 2. You can see a copy of the presentation below.

Overall, although there were things we could improve on, we felt we all delivered a great pitch with a workable idea that, when adapted, could prove to be a success in the future.
