ATLANTA - June 7, 2013 - PRLog -- Due to unforeseen circumstances, The :04 Pitch with CNN / HLN Expert Holly Hughes workshop, which is presented by Women In Film & Television Atlanta (WIFTA), has been rescheduled for September 28, 2013. Despite the date change, the event and what attendees can expect from it remain unchanged.

The :04 Pitch workshop focuses on what is said and how it is said. You've heard of that all important "15 minutes of fame," right? Well, in today’s marketplace, you may only get seconds to make an impact on your industry. This workshop prepares you for when that opportunity comes knocking.

WIFTA always brings cutting edge speakers to the film and television community and this event is no different. WIFTA has joined forces with a true professional in this arena. She is CNN / HLN’s very own Legal Analyst Holly Hughes. Ms. Hughes has appeared on Court TV as a frequent commentator since 2003. Additional network and cable TV credits include CNN’s John King USA, Outfront with Erin Burnett, CNN Newsroom, TruTv’s In Session, HLN’s new hit show After Dark, Prime News, Special Report, ShowBiz Tonight, Jane Velez Mitchell, The Joy Behar Show, Evening Express and the highly popular Nancy Grace Show. Ms. Hughes has also hosted the Nancy Grace Show and appeared as an expert witness on Swift Justice with Nancy Grace on the Fox Network.

Ms. Hughes is known for a quick wit and a knockout punch. Like some of the best a fighters in the ring, she has a 1-2 way of getting to the point and is well versed in showing others how to do the same. Attendees of the workshop will learn:

·         How to stand out as the expert guest
·         How to quickly gather thoughts, despite nervousness
·         How to break into a conversation / interview without coming off rude
·         How to succinctly get a point across
·         How to take advantage of an emotionally charged interview situation

This workshop is ideal for anyone who has ever said, "I would have said __________ if I had the time."  After this workshop, attendees will know, without hesitation, how to make the most of every opportunity--in front of or behind the camera.
