Howdy Storytellers! 🤠

Today we've got a workshop to announce all about helping you create films that viewers will need to finish (aka they get hooked!).

But first we’ve got big news to share! Our team is packing their bags and heading to the London Book Fair next month to meet up with publishers, creators, and industry pros from around the world and to soak up all the storytelling inspiration we can.

If you’re going to be there, let us know! We’ll have a booth where you can pick up a copy of Creatorwood: How to Build a Business Making Movies with AI (grab an e-copy here) and also our Author Marketing Superpowers deck (get your downloadable copy here).

You’ll also be able to see the exclusive premiere of an AI film made with the Movie Machine by a best-selling horror author 🤯.

And… this guy would love to meet you in person! (Hopefully we can convince him to leave his faux fur vest at home!)

Michael gets ready to take on London in style!

If you won’t be attending, don’t worry… we’ll be sharing behind-the-scenes moments and highlights when we get back.

Now More Details On… Week 3 of the How to Make Your Movie Popcorn-Worthy Series 🍿

We’re working hard to launch the Movie Machine to the public in the coming months (we are in an open beta now, you can join here).

In the lead up to the launch, we’ve been helping you craft stories that will resonate with viewers and help you sell more films.

You can watch the recording of last week’s workshop, all about how to make AI characters that viewers will fall in love with 👇

We’re on the final week of our “How to Make Your Movie Popcorn-Worthy” series, Crafting a Story Worth Finishing. We’re taking a deep dive into structure that keeps things moving, stakes that actually escalate, and scenes that earn their place. No saggy middles. No rushed endings. Just a clean, compelling arc that carries your audience all the way through.

If you’ve ever thought, “I have a great concept… now what?” — this is your now what. Let’s lock in your structure and make sure you don’t miss a beat.

🎥 Class starts at 6 pm ET today (yep super soon!), February 26th

We’ll be sharing a recording of the workshop on our YouTube channel early next week if you can’t make it to the live workshop.

If you missed the past two weeks, there’s still time to get caught up:

  • Week One, Choosing Stories Worth Watching, watch the replay here.

  • Week Two, Creating Characters Worth Following, catch the replay here.

Next up… announcing the Creatorwood Book Club! 📖

We’ve been building something new for those of you who love to learn as much as you love to create.

Introducing the Creatorwood Book Club! We’ll be reading books focused on storytelling, filmmaking, and even the business side of being a creator. Think structure, character development, screenwriting, directing, marketing, and the art behind what makes stories work. Each month, we’ll choose a book and dig into the ideas together, pulling out practical takeaways you can actually use in your own projects.

If you’re the kind of creator who highlights, underlines, and immediately wants to test what you just learned… this is for you.

Our first book is How to Write a Vertical Series in 10 Days by Isabel Dréan. Isabel will be joining us for our meeting on March 18th at 3pm PT/6pm ET. Grab a copy of the book at your favorite bookseller, then RSVP here!

We hope to see you at an upcoming event and never forget…

Storytellers Rule the World!
