Most of the video projects on Tongal now use the Pitch phase. I'm just curious why a brand would prefer that over just going from the Idea Phase to the Video Phase. I realize they are getting a more developed concept etc. but it seems the Pitch Phase trend is taking the "Crowd" out of crowdsourcing.

Tongal has always been an iterative platform and the Pitch Phase is simply the next logical step in our process. From a brand perspective, the Pitch phase allows for more fully developed, "on-equity" creative to emerge, which means more potential applications and uses for the content.

From a creative standpoint, it means guaranteed payment, increased client feedback and greater exposure for the producer. We think it has, therefore, created a win-win situation for both sides of the equation.

I do see the merit in the Pitch Phase, I like the idea of having a production budget & guaranteed payment. I just hope it doesn't narrow the playing field too much as time goes by.5:17AM May 15, 2012

To follow the previous videos with the Handle It style, they use their bumper in the middle of the video, and have a little "funny" clip afterwards. Since there is no asset for this, how does that work with how we should edit it?

Insert a few frames of black.

3) If the project has what we call a "wildcard" option you can make a video even if you haven't won in the pitch phase. 4)The only person who is allowed to make a video based on a winning pitch is the person who submitted it. Therefore, pitch contents are not displayed publicly.

Hi Pamela, I'll try to answer your questions in order. 1) People who submit a Pitch have a better chance of winning in the video phase, because if your pitch is selected as a winner, you are guaranteed a prize in the video phase. 2) If your Pitch wins, you are required to make a video.
