Boxcutters - An Australian TV Podcast: Pitch Yourself a Crumpler Beanbag

  • Sophie · 5 months ago
    So, supposing, hypothetically, that one had a few character monologues and opening titles on a cd, but was concerned that this hypothetical cd would get crushed during its hypothetical journey across the Atlantic ocean, and one is fairly certain that this hypothetical file is to big to hypothetically email- oh, let's drop the charade! It's me! The hypothetical pitch belongs to me! *sobs and runs off with head in arms*
    *Comes back*
    Erm, that was embarassing.
    What would one do? (Or "i", I guess, as it doesn't matter anymore, my cover has been broken.)

    I've used yousendit.com before, which allows you to upload large files which can then be downloaded by the recipient, that seemed to work.

    Also, we've been asked whether we're looking for the funniest pitch or the one most likely to get made. I haven't talked to the other boys about this yet, but I'm really looking for "surprising", "audacious" and "unexpected" - especially things that shouldn't work but somehow do. Which will often be funny at the same time. Dazzle me! Brett, Josh, what do you think?

    Completely don't understand what this has to do with a Crumpler Bean bag

    The prize is a delightfully comfortable Crumpler Bean Bag. Other than that there is nothing that ties the two concepts together. It's a prize, but what a wondeful prize.

    You can use uploading.com to send it to them. I have just done either the worst or the best pitch in history.

    Audio and or visual components, eh? Well as soon as my wife finds me the round-ended safety scissors, I'm going to make a diorama that will knock your socks off!
