The Ultimate Cross-Media Financing Summit – The Pixel Pitch, 12 October
Don’t miss your chance to take part in the ultimate cross-media financing summit and catch a glimpse of the future of entertainment.
The Pixel Pitch takes place on 12 October, the second day of The Cross-Media Forum 11–14 October. It brings together top international executives from across film, advertising, broadcast, online, mobile, games and publishing to discuss how to finance and package cross-media projects, as nine international teams compete for the £6,000 ARTE Pixel Pitch cash prize.
Teams are given 10 minutes to present their project to a select jury of decision-makers, financiers and potential creative partners who will give direct feedback to each of the contestants. A must-attend event if you want to find out what international cross-media properties are being developed and who is financing them.
Jurors include: Julie Adair (Disney), Stephane Adamiak (Orange), Nick Cohen (Mediacom Beyond Advertising), Rob Crossen (Xbox), Loc Dao (NFB Canada), Lizzie Francke (BFI Film Fund), Jeff Gomez (Starlight Runner), Eric Huang (Penguin Books), Marianne Levy-Leblond (ARTE.TV), Matthew Kershaw (BBH), Ian McClelland (RTL Group), Michael Morris (Artangel), Hilary Perkins (Channel 4), Michel Reilhac (ARTE), Christopher Sandberg (The Company P), Andra Sheffer (Bell Broadcast & New Media Fund), Martin Trickey (BBC), and Lance Weiler (Workbook Project).
