He studied filmmaking at the University of Southern California School of Cinematic Arts and was inspired by the writings of mythologist Joseph Campbell, particularly The Hero with a Thousand Faces, which detailed the Hero's Journey archetype in classical mythology.

Vogler used Campbell's work to create a 7-page company memo for Hollywood screenwriters, A Practical Guide to The Hero with a Thousand Faces, which Vogler later developed into 'The Writer's Journey: Mythic Structure For Writers.' Vogler has since spun off his techniques into a worldwide Masterclass.

Vogler has worked for Disney Studios, Fox 2000 Pictures, and Warner Bros. in the development department. He contributed story material to the Disney animated feature The Lion King.
