#BluePitHype There are so many different opinions on pitches. I try to follow the following formula in one sentence.
When (triggering event) happens to (MC) s/he must (action/choice) or else (stakes).
In a very engaging way, that asks for more...
Porcupine is afraid of everything; Elle that her friends hate her; Lacey that others will figure out her secret; Cooper that he will never be brave; Mira that she can't change the colors of the world back to normal; Gus that he will lose his friends; Teddy that he'll be on Santa's naughty list #PB
So many characters - Porcupine is proud of making friends; Elle for figuring out how she effects others; Lacey for random acts of kindness; Cooper for finding his unique kind of brave; Mira for realizing the importance of following directions; Gus not hiding from his emotions; Teddy for honesty #PB
