His directing career began in 1999 with 'Soldat', a feature-length film telling the story of conscripts in the then-crumbling Russian army. He went on to direct 20+ films around the world for the BBC, PBS and ARTE - specialising in tough investigations in Russia, the Balkans, the Middle East and elsewhere.
His most recent film was 'The Warning'. Made in 2016, it tells the extraordinary story of how the CIA and their Russian counterparts the GRU teamed up for 6 years in the 1990's to recruit the world's top scientists and grant them access to intelligence platforms and data to study climate change.
Paul started to instruct online in 2014, and now has 34,000 students in 165 countries studying filmmaking, storytelling, narration and associated skills. The Story Course is one of his popular courses, with hundreds of five star reviews.

Even though it is presented in a relaxed style, so far its the most professional start to a course I have seen.

This is the best Story telling video/course I have taken so far.

Erg interessante en leerzame cursus, waarbij de spreker het op een leuke en informatieve manier uitlegt.

I'm a business storyteller, working in safety - I have learnt that storytelling inside a company about "heros" that overcome status quo can connect people together to contribute to the larger "theme" of the business - individual, personal stories of individuals that risked themselves to bring about change actually can create social change, culture change and a new norm - this course helped me visualize this more and structure a business story telling strategy to improve workforce engagement

This was certainly challenging. A wide range of concepts are covered in great detail. Examples provide illustrations of how to use the knowledge. Very well taught.

Good

I produce both music and videos. I could knock out my client's work no issues, but always seemed to struggle with my own original works. Then I came across this Storytelling Masterclass. Because of this class I could clearly see I was paying too much attention to the tools and techniques and not enough on the emotional and psychological connections. It's ironic how I coach artists to do that, but really need to take my own advice! Thank you Paul for your wisdom and insights. I now have produced two original songs in the matter of a few days. I, now, have my Lodestar.

I like the instructor's delivery.

It was quite an amazing course, a lot of skills and information on story writing was weaved in just a short duration by the author. A lifelong tool to go back every time you get stuck and introspect on your own skill.
