Ramoji Academy of Film & Television (RAFT) is proud to introduce Mr. Robert McKee’s ‘Story Seminar’ to India. Mr. McKee is the preeminent authority on screenwriting in the world today, and the Story Seminar is easily the most influential writing class in Hollywood.

Robert McKee’s India Story Seminar is a unique opportunity for writers of any medium or genre in India to engage with one of the most respected thinkers on the subject. In recent years the number of Story Seminars has decreased due to writing deadlines for Mr. McKee’s genre books and his commitment to ‘storylogue’, his online community for writers. Writers are urged to register at the earliest to ensure they don’t miss out on this rare event.
