Welcome to the community, Amber Wagoner. Stage 32's a great place for screenwriters and authors. Are you working on any scripts or books right now?

Wilson Ufuoma Okoroluwa

Yes! I have already written scripts on ground

Amber Wagoner

Hi Maurice!! It’s a pleasure to meet you!! I AM certainly working on an “Untitled” feature.

Amber Wagoner

Thank you sooo much Wilson!!

Maurice Vaughan

Sounds great, Amber Wagoner. Is it the Romance/ Crime logline that's posted on your page?

Amber Wagoner

Yes! Absolutely! I actually posted a synopsis as well, I’m just still learning to navigate this site so I don’t know if it posted or not!! Something that’s close to my soul!!

Wilson Ufuoma Okoroluwa

Really..

Amber Wagoner

Wilson Ufuoma Okoroluwa

I am about writing a story on this picture..

Amber Wagoner

Looks fun!!

Maurice Vaughan

Yes, it posted in the logline section of your page, Amber Wagoner. I like the story. The logline is more of a tagline though. Do you want me to post a logline template that I use?

Amber Wagoner

Yes sir!

Amber Wagoner

Thank you!!

Wilson Ufuoma Okoroluwa

Thank You

Maurice Vaughan

You're welcome, Amber Wagoner. Here's the logline template:

For a logline, you want something like: "After ______ (the inciting incident/the event that sets the plot in motion), a _______ (the protagonist with an adjective) tries to _______ (goal of story) so ________ (stakes)."

Loglines are one or two sentences (a one-sentence logline sounds better and it takes less time for a producer, director, etc. to read it). You can add the antagonist in the logline. The inciting incident can also be at the end of the logline.

Example #1:

"After a group of dog criminals arrives in a small town, an impulsive dog sheriff defends a dog treat factory so they won't steal food that's meant for hungry dog families."

Example #2:

"A dysfunctional couple works together to survive against bears after they crash on an abandoned road miles from help."

NOTE: Not all stories will follow this logline template. Biopics, TV shows (the overall logline for a show might not follow this template, but the logline for an episode in the show could), and documentaries might not follow this template.

Amber Wagoner

Thank you soooo much!!!

Maurice Vaughan

You're welcome, Amber Wagoner. Hope the template helps and looking forward to seeing what you name your script. :)
