Testimonials

“I am a first time writer, and I’ve never done anything like a pitch. However, in only a few minutes you had gotten to the bottom of my story and I was able to organize it perfectly. Imagine my surprise when the very first producer I approached at the Pitch Fest told me that I had ‘just given the best pitch she had ever heard!’ That gave me all the confidence I needed for the rest of the day. I feel confident I can pitch to anyone now. Thank you!”
Ed Abramson

“I made five separate pitches following Michael’s principles, and every company I met with asked to see my screenplay.”
Anne Winn
Screenwriter
“I won first place in the Pitch Slam competition just by using the techniques I learned from Michael Hauge’s lecture. They put me in control of the meeting, so I was able to relax. I followed them to the letter, and they really worked! And I know it was his system and not my pitch, because I’ve used this pitch before. But this time, it sold!”
Rosa Graham
Screenwriter; Founder of Find the Funny
“I just got back from the FADE IN Pitch Fest. I had watched your Mastering the 2-Minute Pitch video four times, and followed your methods verbatim. I received 9 script requests, plus a request from an agent at ICM!”
