How To Write High Structure, High Concept Movies
Rob Tobin has read more than 5,000 scripts as a script reader, development exec and script doctor for some of the biggest names in Hollywood, from Freddie Fields ("Glory") and Stephen Cannell ("The A-Team") to Joe Singer ("Dr. Doolittle") and Bill Carraro ("Frequency"). He is also former writing coach and VP of development for The Writers' Boot Camp, the largest national screenwriting school in America. This experience forms the basis of "How to Write High-Concept, High-Structure Movies". Born in Northern Canada in a gold mining town that boasts "8 months of the year snow flies, 4 months of the year blackflies", Rob fully appreciates his Malibu, California life, shared with wife Leslie Coogan (child star Jackie Coogan's daughter). Rob's war cry is: "No more lousy movies! The price of tickets go up, the quality of movies goes down. We must teach a new generation of writers to create powerful, moving stories with solid structure and exciting concepts". Rob is available for writing seminars, one-on-one coaching, script doctoring and book editing. He can be e-mailed at: scripts@earthlink.net.
