Dramatic Structure & Screen Story Theory
A graduate seminar on how stories hold weight — and why yours collapses in act two
Six weeks of structural theory taught the way a graduate seminar teaches it: define the term, test the term against real pages, then defend a position under pressure. You will map causality, distinguish plot from structure, diagnose the act-two collapse mathematically, and finish with a defended structural argument for your own project.
Music Business, Copyright & Publishing
Own what you make: rights, splits, registration, royalties and the paperwork that pays
Six weeks on the part of music nobody teaches in the studio: what a copyright actually is, why every song is two of them, how splits are agreed before anyone is famous enough to argue, which organisations pay which money, and what a licence really permits. You will finish with a registered, documented, correctly split catalogue of your own work.
Record Deals, Contracts, NDAs, Trademarks & Patents
Twenty-five weeks on the paperwork that decides who owns your career
The full paper trail of a creative career, taught in plain language over twenty-five modules: what makes a contract binding, how to read a record deal in risk order, where the money actually leaks in a royalty clause, what publishing costs you over twenty years, when an NDA is protection and when it is theatre, how to clear and register a name before you print merchandise, whether your invention is a patent question at all, and how to negotiate all of it calmly. Every module ends with something you produce, and every case study is a real-shaped situation you argue on paper.
The Hollywood Mandate
The masterclass in executive producing, line producing and surviving the schedule
Sixteen chapters compressed into six working modules. This is the operational side of the business — who holds the keys, what a day costs, how a budget bleeds, and how a professional behaves when the world withdraws its permission.
Billions, Millions and Nothing
The tax code is a menu — and most people never see it
Fifteen chapters on the mechanics that quietly decide who thrives and who merely survives: the average trap, capital gains, the loan lifestyle, entity architecture, depreciation, real estate, estate planning and the philosophy of enough.
The Badge and The Blind Spot
Policing, profit and the character problem behind the law
A four-part study of how a system can pass every reform on paper and still produce the same outcome on the street. You read the argument, run the numbers on the monitor, then measure your own habits against what a fair system is supposed to do.
The Series LLC Operating Agreement
Reading a series LLC agreement, article by article
A working study of a fictional specimen Series LLC operating agreement, drafted under the Alabama Limited Liability Company Law of 2014 (Title 10A, Chapter 5A) as the example statute. Nineteen articles, grouped into six modules, so you can read your own agreement and know what you actually signed.
Penny's Money Adventure
A fun guide to saving, spending and growing money — ages 5 to 10
Penny is counting coins in the park when Coins — a shimmering gold and silver friend — appears and takes her through the Magic Market, the Savings House and the Investment Forest. Six chapters, six playful modules, every one with a game a child can actually run today.
