MALIBU FIRE: THE TOO-LONG, MANY FACETED BUT WAY COOL PITCH DECK

Guy Kawasaki is a Silicon Valley marketing pioneer, author, and venture capitalist widely known as the father of modern "technology evangelism."He was an early promoter of the Apple MacIntosh, Canva and projects that went off like a rocket. Kawasaki says a pitch deck should be 10/20/30 and that is no more than 10 images, no longer than 20 minutes and no font smaller than 30.

I have been warned by those who know what’s up - and those who don’t - that attention spans are short and that this pitch deck is beyond the pale of the 10/20/30 rule. And beyond that, others warn that Hollywood is making a collective Lurch groaning noise when it comes to the use of Artificial Intelligence. AI is threatening jobs and lives and careers in the 21st Century the way sound technology carried the same threats a hundred years ago (See: Babylon). They have tsked tsked that if the length of this Pitch Deck won’t send deciders fleeing, the use of AI is also a bad idea.
Well Malibu Fire is a many-layered idea for a streaming, episodic show, so this pitch deck breaks all of those rules.
This Pitch Deck was put together with images produced by Chat GPT and the layout was done with Claude AI. Very very quickly.
So apologies if the length and the tech offends thee, but Malibu Fire is a many-faceted idea for an episodic streaming series that will be insanely popular if done right.

This story can be told a hundred different ways, but this Pitch Deck lays out many of the story facets, angles, places, faces and situations available along the 21 Miles of Scenic Beauty: from Neptune’s Net to Dukes, Memorial Day to Halloween Night.

Thanks for reading the lot.
