Elevator Pitch
Overview - Elevator Pitch
For the oral part of the course, you will construct and deliver an elevator pitch. The materials will guide you through this process. You will use Panopto for recording, producing, and storing the video. (Panopto is Aalto University's multimedia platform, which is integrated into MyCourses.) To successfully digitally record your video, you need a device with a camera and a mic, e.g. computer, tablet or phone.
Your task is to submit a 1-to 3-minute video of your pitch (where you are visually present when speaking). The process includes learning how to develop a pitch, creating a practice video, giving and receiving peer feedback, and submitting the final version of your video.
