Pitch Preparation

Use this week to get prepared to give your Storyboard Pitch next Monday.

• Remember to make your storyboard panels at least A4 size so the audience can see them clearly.
• Also any additional presentation aids or concepts that you could show the audience is likely to benefit your presentation and increase audience interest.
• Maximum presentation delivery time is 15min.  If you exceed this you are likely to have included too much unimportant information and may have lost audience interest.  I would expect your presentation to last at least 5min in length.  Not sure how long it will go for?  Practise!
