In this version, she seems to have two objective goals:? 1] flee to a land of sanctuary, and then 2] deliver the land from a curse. But a logline should be about one, and only one, primary objective goal. ?(There may be sub-goals, but they are milestones along the way to the primary objective goal.)Read more
In this version, she seems to have two objective goals:? 1] flee to a land of sanctuary, and then 2] deliver the land from a curse.
But a logline should be about one, and only one, primary objective goal. ?(There may be sub-goals, but they are milestones along the way to the primary objective goal.)
So what is her primary objective goal?? One way to figure it out is to decide?what chapter of the story will take up more screen time, the fleeing or the delivering?
If it’s the fleeing, then the plot line is??most likely ?about all the struggles and obstacles to getting to the sanctuary.?? On the other hand, if the bulk of the screen? time is about her?delivering the land?from its curse in order to gain sanctuary, ?then that chapter?would constitute?the? plot line.
Whatever chapter?takes up the bulk of the movie?, that is about her primary objective goal?should be the focus of the logline.
