Robert McKee: Story is Everything

In Hollywood, Mr. Robert McKee is a living legend, a kind of “God” among storytellers. This creative writing instructor teaches a program to sold out audiences worldwide that he developed as a professor at the University of Southern California. He’s the author of Story: Substance, Structure, Style and the Principles of Screenwriting. This bible, currently in its 19th printing has become required reading for film and cinema schools at Harvard, Yale, UCLA, USC, etc. McKee has sold many of his own screenplays for film and television, and his students include 63 Academy Award winners and 164 Emmy Award winners. We’re ELATED to bring you the man Russell Brand calls: “… a wanderer… a misanthrope… a whisky-sipping, dusky voiced, Bogart-esque Sinatra but in prose…” Huh? Stay tuned. Like Russell, we were mesmerized to learn from this master and know you will be too!
