On Sept 20, Rob Price and Andrew Librizzi will teach a Content17 workshop, as part of the Screenwriting Track entitled "Mastering a Movie's Beat Sheet: The Secret Structure to Successful Screenplays."
Rome wasn’t built in a day. Neither are film scripts. Building an idea from its first spark through the finished screenplay requires careful structure and planning. Stages include: the logline, the two-page synopsis, key character biographies, the beat sheet, the step outline, the “vomit” draft, the revision drafts, and final draft. This session will introduce all the stages but drills down on the critically important “beat sheet” component (based on the model from the book Save the Cat written by Blake Snyder). The session will include a case study from the film "The Devil Wears Prada."
