You’ll use StudioBinder to write your screenplays. They have tools that will format all of the different pieces of your screenplay. Make a free account using your school email (username@students.lcisd.org) and password.

You need to have these parts completed (below) and turned in BEFORE you begin writing your full story. Know that you can alter these pieces as you being writing your full story. These are intended to help guide you through the writing process.

• Logline
  • Character
  • Goal
  • Obstacle
• Theme – what should the viewers learn
• 3 Acts
  • Act 1 – inciting incident
  • Act 2 – what’s the goal and what are they doing to achieve it
  • Act 3 – the culmination of what happens when they achieve/fail at their goal
• Protagonist & Antagonist
  • Character names
  • Who are they/what are they about?
• Write your story – give some details about characters, scenes, etc. But don’t worry about the script yet. That will come next.
