Workshop - The Outline
Learn how to make outlining your script so much easier by using the 8 sequence method in this in this quick 30 minute workshop.
The 8 sequence method in screenwriting is a structural approach that divides a traditional feature-length screenplay into eight distinct sequences, each roughly 10-15 minutes long.
These sequences function as mini-movies within the larger story, containing their own goals, conflicts, and resolutions that drive the narrative forward. This framework helps writers maintain pacing and clarity, ensuring that each segment has a clear purpose and escalates the stakes.
By breaking the screenplay into manageable parts, the 8 sequence method provides a practical roadmap for plotting and revising, making it easier to craft a cohesive and engaging story.
