Action by Robert Mckee; Bassem el-Wakil Read by Robert Mckee - Audiobook Excerpt
From the master of Story, Dialogue, and Character, ACTION offers writers the keys to propulsive storytelling.
ACTION explores the ways that a modern-day writer can successfully tell an action story that not only stands apart, but wins the war on clichés. Teaming up with the former co-host of The Story Toolkit, Bassim El-Wakil, legendary story lecturer Robert McKee guides writers to award-winning originality by deconstructing the action genre, illuminating the challenges, and, more importantly, demonstrating how to master the demands of plot with surprising beats of innovation and ingenuity.
Topics include:
Understanding the Four Core Elements of Action
Creating the Action Cast
Hook, Hold, Pay Off: Design in Action
The Action Macguffin
Action Set Pieces
The Sixteen Action Subgenres
A must-add to the McKee storytelling library, ACTION illustrates the principles of narrative drive with precision and clarity by referencing the most popular action movies of our time including: Die Hard, The Star Wars Saga, Dark Knight, The Matrix, and Avengers: Endgame.
Available January 24, 2023 from Hachette Audio as a digital download from Twelve.
