Movie Pitch on the current market trends

Imagine you have the opportunity to pitch an original idea for a new TV or movie program that is based on current market trends. You will need to research what the popular genres are in either movies or television and write your pitch with the intention of selling a story that falls in line with what is currently profitable. Be sure to call it a proposal (pitch is a salesman’s term).

Write a 350- to 700-word pitch directed to either a movie or television producer. Bear in mind that this is not an academic essay, so you are not writing a paper about a pitch.

If a movie, include a full story summary (not just a tease without an ending) and characters with a description of why the story falls in line with what is currently profitable. Include an analysis discussing how your project reflects current popular entertainment trends and reflects (or not) American cultural values and their influence on social behavior.

If a TV series, describe the characters and a first episode story summary, and describe the ongoing format of the series with a description of why it falls in line with what is currently profitable. Include an analysis discussing how your project reflects current popular entertainment trends and reflects (or not) American cultural values and their influence on social behavior.

If you choose to pitch a reality show, describe the premise, location, participants, and process of the series, and how the program matches current popular entertainment trends and does or does not reflect American cultural values and their influence on social behavior.

Do not propose remakes, revivals, stories, characters, or concepts to which you do not own the rights.
