Regardless of your current or desired role in the creative and commercial processes of filmmaking, media development, and/or strategic planning and project development in virtually any arena, everything you do is a manifestation of story and storytelling.

If you are a writer, you must divine, define, and powerfully express your story in a way that speaks to and moves actors, directors, producers, publishers, and ultimately an audience. 

If you are an actor, director, producer, or development exec, you must clearly convey your needs and vision to guide your best from writers AND know how to listen to draw out and get theirs. 

If you are a studio or marketing executive really worth your salt, you must know how to assure you have the goods for more than just a marketing campaign for a successful opening weekend.

And if you are a planner, manager, or change agent of any kind in the reel or real world, you must effectively divine, communicate, and engage others in your vision of possibility and change.
