Anyone have any pitch session horror stories or rather "this was a waste of time" story? Yes, I know it is a good way to meet contacts and I did in fact meet a few of those when I ventured out of my home state Connecticut to sunny California, but all in all I found almost everyone to be blowing smoke up my butt. In my opinion the execs/prods had the attention span of a hyper three year old. Who could blame them having to listen to fifty or sixty, five minute pitches conducted by as many losers as talented people.
Anyone else feel the same way? Before you answer "Yes it is. I've met so many wonderful contacts." Search yourself and ask where has it gotten you. Only two out of twenty one execs/prods who swore up and down they had to have my script and would contact me actually did.
I had an agent from Endeaver who smuggly told me they don't rep new writers. I had to ask him what the heck was he doing at a pitch session then?
