I volunteered in June to help assist in an online perfect pitch event as part of the children’s media conference. I was put into small groups with two industry experts from the children’s television and media world and was in charge of timing three different pitches , one from storyboard artist and two from script writers. I’m interested in being part of the idea development part of animation and also storyboarding It was great to get an insight of the do’s and don’ts of pitching ideas.
Through volunteering i then had access to the online industry events for the programme, which covered a range of issues from creating interesting characters to representing diversity in children’s tv.
