Join us for a special Owning It Workshop with Meghan Ross on Pitch Deck Essentials!

Overview

Knowing how to convey the specifics about your project in a dynamic, succinct way can land you not only supporters, but also collaborators, your intended audience, and more. This all comes together in your pitch, both the written materials and in the delivery. Join us for a workshop led by Meghan Ross (Sundance Fellow, Webby nominee) that will cover: pitch deck do's and don'ts, how to prepare for a pitch meeting, how to adapt a pitch to different audiences, and then the follow up — setting your work up for success.

Owning It was established with the intention to support, connect, and empower women and non-binary creators and entrepreneurs who break down boundaries in the media and entertainment industry. The program consists of thought leadership, an annual summit, accountability challenges, and workshops. Owning It provides an inclusive environment that expands and expresses a liberated movement for women and non-binary individuals as well as those that are our champions, advocates, and allies.

Gotham Members can attend this workshop for FREE! Log in to your account and RSVP from your Member Dashboard.
