Beat by Beat: FREE Workshop with Todd Klick
In this short class, Todd Klick will read from his new book Beat by Beat: A Cheat Sheet for Screenwriters and will highlight the 120 beats found in every successful blockbuster.
This groundbreaking guide describes six seemingly different popular movies and genres (Skyfall, The Avengers, The Hangover, A Beautiful Mind, The Conjuring, Gone Girl) and shows screenwriters how they all follow the exact same 120 Universal Story Beats minute by minute. The book also reveals the top 10 archetypes they use, and where and why the Inciting Incident, Act 2 & 4 Quests, Midpoints, and the other five main Turning Points happen in all successful movies.

REVIEWS:
"Once in a while a book comes along that shakes up the world of storytelling with a new approach that brings fresh insights and techniques to the craft. Save the Cat! was like that, a game-changer, and now another work appears that has the same potential to open doors for a lot of scriptwriters. " -Christopher Vogler, The Writer's Journey
