Screenplay title and genre Logline Here you would add a short, but captivating, summary of your screenplay's plot. This should be no more than two sentences long. Pitch paragraph Here you will introduce the main protagonists in your story and its setting. Character names should be in all caps. There is no need to describe secondary characters at this point. SYNOPSIS Act 1 summary In no more than three paragraphs, set the scene for your story. This will include an introduction to the main characters and to the conflict that will drive the narrative. The first time that each character's name is used, it should be in all caps again, but not in the case of any subsequent references. Act 2 summary This is usually the longest section of a screenplay synopsis: up to eight paragraphs. Here you will build the action until it reaches the critical moment when the main characters' lives are changed. Act 3 summary Here you should add the conclusion of the conflict and resolution to your story. This should include a few lines about what happens to the main characters after the “action” is over. Some writers choose to add both a short “teaser” ending and a longer “actual” ending as separate paragraphs, but doing so is optional.
