_chronological

A character’s journey How does she change in the course of your story?

Tense Past Present Future

Font Courier or Courier New

Scene heading ( or Slug Line) INT(erior) or EXT(erior) Location Time of day

Capitalization The name of a character the first time she appears in the script Anything else that you want to EMPHASIZE (for example, a sound that will be heard: ROAR, WHISTLE, SCREAM, etc…)

Brackets ( or Parentheses) Between character name and dialogue Describes the dialogue in some way: (V.O.), (apologetically), etc… How is the dialogue being said? Or where is it coming from?

Character biography

A character acts; She does something.

Dramatic Conflict When a character is prevented from getting something she wants. Action is the result of conflict: I want, I cannot have, therefore I act. I try to remove the obstacle so I can get what I want.

Dramatic Action When something happens - an event - that makes or permits something else to happen - another event. Action is two ‘something happenings,’ one leading to the other.

An event is a concrete occurrence that takes place in time and space among characters. (But what if there’s only one character?) Find the first event, then the second event, then the connection between the two. The connection is the action, distinct from the events. When we name the connection between two events, we name the action.

1 st event: I say, “How are you?" 2 nd event: You respond, “Fine, thank you." Connection: I am greeting you. 1 st event: I call you a 混蛋. 2 nd event: You hit me. 3 rd event: I hit you back. Connection: We are fighting.

1 st event: He goes to kiss her. 2 nd event: She puts her lips next to his. Connection: They are kissing, or making out, or 缩颈. 1 st event: He goes to kiss her. 2 nd event: She pushes him away and says “What are you doing?!” Connection: He is courting ( 求爱 ) her; she is rejecting him.
