SHOW TITLE: Developing Your Elevator Pitch… And Raising Funds
My guest is Jessica Rose, who came up with the fantastic idea WeRehearse, which is a terrific video chat built specifically for actors. If you are an actor, WeRehearse helps you to connect with other actors to learn lines and run through your scripts with easy sharing of sides right in the video window. Jessica Rose smashed into the consciousness of a global audience way back in 2006 as the star of ‘LonelyGirl15’ on internet radio . Millions followed this groundbreaking series as the internet and real world media discussed the blurring of fiction and reality. Jessica became YouTube royalty and won countless awards including the 2007 Webby award for best actress and Forbes magazine ‘Number ONE web celebrity’. After discovering online success and its magical reach to new audiences, Jessica began developing new ideas and producing content. As part of the process she regularly met with co-creators via video chat and so the idea of WeRehearse was born.
