Portfolio question- have you shown pitch work, especially if your concept got sold in (and regardless of how it then evolved to the final product)?
Asking as I’ve been pitching more than launching lately and still wanting to show ability/accomplishments for this time. Thanks.

Yes. I always caveat whatever needs to be said about how far along the project went but if it's a good example of your work and looks polished then it's fair game.

I think if it gets sold in, you gotta show the true end result. I’m curious what others think about sharing an incredible pitch campaign that didn’t win.

It always feels weird to me to have things in your book you didn't actually make. Yeah, part of our job is being creative but half of it is selling that creativity and producing it. Just an idea on paper is far less impressive- anyone can do that.
