This is still just set-up, the story would be what she must do to become a musician (Soul Singer)
Also, because there are many stories about a small town girl heading to the city to make it big…
you need to add the element in your script that sets apart your story from the rest.
Please, more story detail.
Hollyweird has a fondness for rags-to-riches, farm-to-fame stories, but as Richiev noted, so many have already been done that in order to get attention this logline needs to ?pitch a story that has a new angle, a ?unique twist. ?A plus factor would be if it’s a biopic.
A powerfully motivating event would strengthen the story.
Is there something that happened to the girl that motivated her to leave?
Don’t have your logline assume that being a musician is the “most difficult” thing to accomplish. She can always work in the music industry and be a musician, just not on the level as say Beyonce or someone famous — add famous into the logline — that may help.
Let’s say you add in that she is a sharecropper and is also DEAF — now, you’ve staked up the obstacle with a simple disability.
A deaf woman runs away from…. to become a musician.
Now, everything we need to know about this task of hers is front and center. How can she overcome those immense odds?
