Here is your Follow Up Video:<\/a><\/li><\/ul><\/nav><\/div>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Welcome to our Business Communication Club session on &#8220;Talking about Art and Art Forms Using the Elevator Pitch Structure.&#8221; Before we dive into the art world, let&#8217;s start with a practical explanation of what an elevator pitch is. An elevator pitch is a brief, persuasive speech used to spark interest in what you or your organisation does. It&#8217;s concise, typically lasting about 30 seconds to 1 minute \u2013 the time you might spend in an elevator. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>The structure generally includes who you are, what you do, and what you&#8217;re seeking. In business, it&#8217;s used to engage potential clients or investors. Today, we&#8217;ll adapt this structure to the context of discussing art and art forms, enhancing our ability to communicate about our artistic interests succinctly and effectively. We will prepare to &#8216;Pitch the Organisation of An Art Exposition in front of an Art Collector who is considering investing in our gallery and in an artist we have been promoting for many years<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you are using this Conversation Club as a part of an MPEC Workshop, we suggest adding time to prepare the Elevator Pitch as well as integrating the conversation with any grammar or additional vocabulary if needed. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Art form is just a fascinating example that will help us gain confidence when using the Elevator Pitch in English in other context and for other purposes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity is-style-dots\"\/>\n\n\n\n<div
