Consultation Sessions: 12:00-6:00pm -- Each Session lasts for thirty (30) minutes. This is a chance for a screenwriter to have a one-on-one story consultation with Richard Michaels Stefanik.

Richard Michaels Stefanik will be lecturing on Story Structures in Popular Hollywood Movies at Universal Studios on Monday Sept. 12th. At Sherwood Oaks emerging writers can meet and chat with major producers, writers, agents, directors and actors. And the best part is that for nearly all of the situations we set up, the guests are willing to accept material directly from our small group of writers, whether they have representation or not. Sherwood Oaks Experimental College specializes in organizing screenwriting events which gives writers access to the top agents, producers and studio executives in Hollywood. It brings in industry players to personally meet with writers and keeps the groups small to allow the writers to interact with each and every guest. In 2005 James Cameron, Kevin Costner, David Duchovney, Morgan Freeman, Michael London, Gary Marshall, Hillary Swank, David Mamet and many others have appeared. Sherwood Oaks Experimental College also takes small groups to award shows like the Directors Guild Award Show, he Producers Guild Awards, the Writers Guild Awards, and the Emmys. It has held screenwriting events at many Hollywood Studios, including Sony, MGM, FOX, Universal and Paramount. www.SherwoodOaksCollege.com

The new 500+ page edition analyzes The Megahit Movies, those films which have generated more than $250 million in North American Box Office receipts. It presents principles of story construction that can be used to develop popular movies by providing an analysis of cinematic techniques. It also offers stimulating ideas that can be helpful in the creative process. The book is designed for writers, directors and producers who want to create commercially successful films. The fundamentals of dramatic structure, the human emotions, and the construction of humorous characters and situations are explained, with examples drawn from some of the most popular motion pictures Hollywood has ever produced.
The Foreword to the book is written by Christopher Lockhart, Executive Story Editor, International Creative Management (ICM), in which he discusses what Producers, Agents and Studios are looking for when reading scripts.
This book discusses the recent megahit-blockbuster movies such as SPIDER-MAN, SHREK, HARRY POTTER, BRUCE ALMIGHTY, MATRIX TRILOGY, FINDING NEMO, PIRATES OF THE CARIBBEAN and THE LORD OF THE RINGS.
