Archive: Workshop your Elevator Pitch
Here is my starting point with the elevator pitch. have always thought it is a great idea but never worked on one till now. Interested in your thoughts.
Doug Freeman
Elevator PitchMy work is about making a reason to go to the town square or the park – a touch stone and a meeting place.
I make sculpture out of bronze that gives form to the local familiar or the spirit that energizes a place. Like The Lion’s Fountain in LA or The Seven Lucky Gods in Tokyo.
Fountains that make people want to play.

I so like the ring of this Doug. Your word sculpture has me intrigued and knowing at the same time. A lovely balance that has me comfortably curious.

YO.. There is something really calming about fountains.
It is a goo d word as well as in the ‘fountain of youth’ so I get your playful scenario.

I really like this Terrill, it’s simple and not ‘artsty’ speak so great for everyone interested in art from any angle. While simple I think I would feel intrigued, well no I do feel intrigued, to ask more or to look you up and see how you present that mystery.

Hi Terrill..should it not read ordinary “way”?

I do like your pitch but I’m not sure about the word “exposing” – having viewed your work, I don’t feel a resonance with this particular word…it almost feels too harsh or glaring. It feels more like your work is an invitation to bear witness to the mystery of everyday life, to elevate those moment and not “expose” them (and of course, this could just simply be my own subjective bias with the connotations this word conjures of say a person exposing themselves!)

Hi Terrill,
A simple, clear and inviting pitch. It works for me!
