Summary
If you've learned the three-act structure, you may be ready to try variations on the basics and simply create scripts that are more focused and with more momentum. What are other ways that the three-act structure can be used? How does a writer learn to juggle the difficult elements in non-traditional structures? In this program, script consultant and screenwriting coach Dr. Linda Seger discusses the three-act structure in scenes and scene sequences. She discusses how to use structure to give you stronger turning points (surprising reveals, twists, turns, scene transitions) and non-traditional structural forms that have created such great films as Pulp Fiction, Crash, Ordinary People, Before the Rain, and Sleepless in Seattle.
