The Story-Type Method
An exciting new approach to screenwriting and script development designed to help you master story structure while setting you free from unnecessary rules…
Books
The Story-Type Method® is a groundbreaking screenwriting and storytelling theory introduced by Emmanuel Oberg in his bestselling book Screenwriting Unchained, which hit the #1 slot in screenwriting and TV Screenwriting on Amazon US and in many countries around the world.
The second volume in the collection, The Screenwriter’s Troubleshooter, was published in October 2019 and also became an Amazon bestseller in TV Screenwriting. The third volume, a companion book to our interactive online course Writing a Successful TV Series, was published in June 2023 and became instantly a #1 New Release in TV Screenwriting on Amazon U.S. and Amazon UK. It’s already a #1 bestseller in TV Direction and Production on Amazon U.S.
Quick Overview
This online presentation provides a quick overview of Oberg’s approach. Along with the free sampler of his first book, Screenwriting Unchained, available as a download when you register with the website, it’s one of the best ways to get a sense of the benefits of using the method during the development of film and TV series projects. It also suggests ways to get more help if needed.
Live Workshops & Programs
The Story-Type Method is also at the heart of Emmanuel’s Advanced Development Workshop. Add-on modules on Thrillers, Comedies, Animations and TV Series as well as rewrite workshops for feature films or TV Series are available too. These workshops are delivered online or in-person (travel permitting), live or in hybrid form (self-led course + live Q&A sessions).
If your priority is development rather than training, you might want to take a look at our Slate Acceleration – Advanced Development Program.
Interactive Online Courses
We are currently adapting our live workshops into interactive online courses, accessible to individuals, worldwide, starting with our main Advanced Development Course and its TV Series add-on.
Consulting and Coaching
