Your Storytelling Potential is the result of years of research into storytelling structure and plotting, providing writers with essential tools and insights for crafting stories with genuine layers and depth.
Writers seeking to create novels and screenplays with genuine layers and depth will find essential insight in Mitchell German's Your Storytelling Potential!
After studying filmmaking and screenwriting at NYU-one of the premier film studies programs in the United States (if not the world)-Mitchell German graduated with a complete doctrine on storytelling theory in his arsenal; yet his screenplays still lacked the potency he desired. He spent ten years studying every available book and "expert" on storytelling, but it wasn't until 2002, after endlessly studying the movie Liar Liar, that Mitchell found the key and developed the Your Storytelling Potential Method.
The truth about great storytelling is hidden in plain view for anyone to see, but nearly every expert ignores the most basic story construct. In Your Storytelling Potential, writers who seek to tell great stories will find:
A complete understanding of the Identifiable Traits great novels and screenplays (namely movies) have that distinguish them from the other 99.99% of books and screenplays written every yearHow to use Two Stories within a screenplay and novel, which exponentially increases the chances of those stories gaining buzz and attention A proper understanding of the critical and essential role of Subplots to create genuine character depth and relationshipsHow to properly integrate a Theme for stories to convey deep, relevant, and amazing ideas An outline for utilizing A/B Parallel Story Structure and the Simple Story Timeline to build multi-dimensional stories with the required converging events of the A-Story/B-Story relationshipHow the premise of every great story is created by the convergence of the A & B Storylines, and how this Key Information can unlock Your Storytelling Potential
About the Author: Motivated to become an exceptional storyteller through film and visual media, Mitchell German studied filmmaking and screenwriting at NYU's Tisch School of the Arts-one of the premier film studies programs in the United States (if not the world). He graduated with a complete doctrine on storytelling theory in his arsenal; yet something was still missing in his understanding of the way stories operated. Mitchell spent ten years studying every available book and "expert" on storytelling, but he found they mostly taught the same regurgitated information. It wasn't until 2002, after endlessly studying the movie Liar Liar, that Mitchell discovered the key and developed his unique approach to story construction that would become Your Storytelling Potential. His storytelling method formed the basis of the first instructional course he compiled for screenwriters-the Mega Course-as well as his enormously successful Plot Control screenwriting software that has since been adapted for novelists (Chapter Control), television writers and producers (Episode Control), college essay writers (Essay Dog), and even business entrepreneurs running webinars and launching new products. Today, Mitchell's book Your Storytelling Potential is an essential resource for writers of all backgrounds and experience levels. He currently resides outside of West Palm Beach, FL.
