Writing A Film Treatment

As I am currently doing my film treatment for my coursework I decided to actually do some research into film treatments e.g. what a film treatment actually is, what to include etc.

A film treatment is an outline of the original product that is desired to be created.

What to include in a film treatment:
- a short logline
- introduction to protagonists and key characters
- who, what, when, where and why
- Act One in one to three paragraphs (set scene, dramatise main conflicts)
- Act Two in two to six paragraphs (show how conflicts in Act One lead to final crisis)
- Act Three in one to three paragraphs (final conflict and resolution)
