The footage to gather
- The prior milestone
- The new evidence
- The next decision
Give each moment a little breathing room. Get close enough to show the detail, and keep the original clips handy.
Plan a one-minute pitch
Use the opening ten seconds to establish the problem.
Reserve the middle for a real demonstration or a dated piece of evidence; cut secondary claims first.
Use the final seconds for the ask and a way to follow up.
Review it for investor updates
Date figures and separate realised results from forecasts.
Ask yourself: Can the pitch fit the intended time without rushing its evidence?
Watch it as if you were seeing it for the first time. If something is unclear, try a different cut or add the missing shot.
