Screenplay writer, stand-up comic, and actor Russell Phillips is a graduate of SMU’s Communications Program (Cinema Sequence) in Dallas, Texas. As a student, he earned a spot in visiting UCLA professor Richard Walter’s screenwriting seminar. Russell’s scripts helped him forge valuable industry contacts, but none of the projects quite came together. In the pursuit of stronger script writing skills, he acquired a robust library of how-to books and continued to register for available advanced learning courses—until he found Mitchell German’s Your Storytelling Potential Method.Russell was an early Plot Control user and Mega Course student. After many years away from creative writing, he revisited the Mega Course during the early days of the 2020 worldwide pandemic and found the message of Thematic Relevance powerfully resonant. He recognized that Mitchell German’s method was not a mere explanation of storytelling ideas, but a very different model for story construction. Today, Russell enthusiastically joins Mitchell to help bring the method Your Storytelling Potential Method to top professional and novice author-storytellers the world over. He currently resides in East Texas.
