Save the Cat Goes to the Movies
Page 28
Blake turned author in 2005 with Save the Cat! The Last Book on Screenwriting You’ll Ever Need, now in its ninth printing. He is also a popular and enthusiastic speaker who has prompted “standing room only” lectures and workshops in New York, London, San Francisco, Seattle, Chicago, Vancouver, Toronto, Barcelona, and his hometown of Los Angeles.
The Cat! method has become the “secret weapon” of many development executives, managers, and producers for its precise, easy, and honest appraisal of what it takes to create and write stories that resonate. Save the Cat! The Last Story Structure Software You’ll Ever Need has codified this method in an easy-to-use CD-Rom that is, like the book, a consistent best seller.
Blake has a B.A. in English from Georgetown University and has been a proud member of WGA, west since 1987.

Since 1981, Michael Wiese Productions has been dedicated to providing both novice and seasoned filmmakers with vital information on all aspects of filmmaking. We have published nearly 100 books, used in over 600 film schools and countless universities, and by hundreds of thousands of filmmakers worldwide.
Our authors are successful industry professionals who spend innumerable hours writing about the hard stuff: budgeting, financing, directing, marketing, and distribution. They believe that if they share their knowledge and experience with others, more high quality films will be produced.
And that has been our mission, now complemented through our new web-based resources. We invite all readers to visit www.mwp.com to receive free tipsheets and sample chapters, participate in forum discussions, obtain product discounts — and even get the opportunity to receive free books, project consulting, and other services offered by our company.
Our goal is, quite simply, to help you reach your goals. That’s why we give our readers the most complete portal for filmmaking knowledge available — in the most convenient manner.
We truly hope that our books and web-based resources will empower you to create enduring films that will last for generations to come.
Let us hear from you at anytime.
Sincerely,
Michael Wiese
