I watched FutureLearn on YouTube which showed me how Frank Ash would set up a treatment for a film. His main point are that you need to be interested in what you are creating and make sure that other people will be too.
"So, if you’re aiming for your film to reach a large audience online, making sure it has universal appeal will be key. We’ll be thinking about this in more practical terms later in the week, but let’s bring Frank Ash’s points together with the last step’s concerns:
- Think about your favourite book or film or any ‘good story’ you recently watched online, could you sum up its narrative into ‘one elegant sentence’ to provide its ‘topline’?
- What was its big story question, and how important was it to your appreciation of the text?"
You follow this up with the next post, showing this approach in operation. You made good use of this FutureLearn film course.
