Robert McKee The Power of Story Not only intended for screenwriters, the Story Seminar is attended by media & marketing executives, creative agency professionals and just about anyone who needs to communicate more clearly and convincingly. Over the last 25 years, even lawyers and bankers have taken his course to learn how to develop the story of an IPO or why investors should buy shares. Taking place over two days, Monday 24th May and Tuesday 25th May, Robert's enormously stimulating and information-packed Story Seminar: The Power of Story will reveal the essential elements of story design that help separate great stories from the rest of the pack. |
