Read this Book Before Pitching Your Story: you wont regret it.By Neko NineThis is an excellent book and reading it gave me the preparation and confidence I needed to enter and win a Pitching Contest. Most of it is common sense. but the book is laid out clearly and and you can apply its suggestions to your pitch immediately. There are plenty of example of pitches in here that later became household names; you see right away why something worked and why it may be worth trying for your own Pitch. This isnt a one-all reference. there are very good videos and podcasts on this subject that should also be included in a writers/artists preparation. but this book was extremely helpful in filling the holes. This book is worth much more than its price.6 of 6 people found the following review helpful. Animation Development - good insight into how to approachBy Jonathan PolitiDavid Levy gives a glimpse into what it takes to be successful in animation production. with an entertaining and engaging approach. He shares stories from his career. using his own personal experiences in pitching animation projects. as well as the experiences from fellow animators who have succeeded and failed in the market. There are some great nuggets of advice that he buries in the text and although its entertaining I wouldnt treat it as a light read if you want to pull the information. His points on how all creators are not created equally resonates through the book - there are some animators who are able to make opportunities based on their connections. their portfolio. their experience and track record. Who you know and who you are matters. If I were to share one criticism with the author. I would tell him to do more "show and tell" - add even more relevant examples of materials like the pitch bibles so that the playing field will be more level and the readers can see more of what works. Overall. I enjoyed the book and the authors approach - a good behind the scenes look at the process.1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. Interesting Information form an Industry InsiderBy justin hawnIf you ever wondered how a cartoon goes from a thought in ones head to lighting up the small screen. this is the book to read. Its partially a step-by-step process on how to get an option on a cartoon. and its partially a memoire of the authors own experiences. David B. Levy (a veteran of television animation) uses real world examples to prove his points and his dos and donts in developing animation. The volume even covers the legal mumbo-jumbo that all budding artists should at least be aware of. There are no stones left unturned in the wake of this book. If you are looking towards a career in animation development and want a simple. digestible. and a no-sugar-coated real-talk starting point. this is the place to start.
