Loglines to Treatments: Mastering the Art.


In this episode, we break down three essential tools every screenwriter needs: the logline, the synopsis, and the treatment. #theFimLab


“An off-duty NYPD cop must save his estranged wife and other hostages from terrorists who have taken over a Los Angeles skyscraper during a Christmas Eve party.” - Name the film!


Learn how to craft a one-sentence hook that grabs attention, expand it into a synopsis that proves your story works, and build a treatment that serves as a blueprint for producers and collaborators. These tools aren’t just for Hollywood—they’re powerful frameworks for pitching any idea with clarity and impact.


Join the conversation in our #ReelCantina discussion thread at the #60SecondFilmSchool.
