Lesson 1 — Story & Script

LESSON 1 • BUILD YOUR FIRST SHORT FILM

Story & Script

Turn one idea into a focused 3–5 minute story with a clear beginning, turning point, and ending.

Build it

Write a one-sentence premise, define what your main character wants, then outline 6–10 story beats. Turn those beats into a short script with dialogue and simple scene directions.

STORYBOARD CHECKPOINT

Your first frames are ready.

Each story beat becomes a storyboard frame. These frames will be enriched by every lesson that follows.
