I'm aware that their is already a thread on writing a sitcom treatment, but does anyone have any idea how I would go about writing a short film treatment? The script is 13-15 pages long. Very simple idea.
I've contacted a local company who like the idea, but want to see a script and treatment first.
Any ideas or examples would be great.
Thanks in advance good people.
It'll be the same, presumably as the sitcom treatment.
i.e. (in this order)
1) Logline. (one sentence of what the film is about)
2) Short synopsis. (150 words-ish)
3) Long more detailed synopsis. (a few hundred words)
4) Character breakdown.
5) Anything else you can think of.
I'd probably only write a really short treatment for a short film - maybe only a few sentences, as after all it would be better for them to just read the script which is, well, short anyway.
Maybe a logline a brief outline and any other specifics that aren't conveyed in the script, about how you see it filmed, etc.
