Let's sit down and finally write

but we are not going to
start writing a script.

The best thing is that
we have a little patience

and let's write a synopsis.

How do you write a synopsis?

We will see it in this
lesson, but first a tip.

If we already see that
the synopsis does not work,

it would be best not
yet to write the script

and work on the synopsis.

Hardly a poorly written
synopsis becomes a good chapter.

On the other hand, let's see how
to write the synopsis of the series,

in the case that it is a series,

and how can we write the
synopsis of each episode of the series.

So let's write, little by
little, but let's get started.

In principle I separated this
quote from Pascal that says:

"I have written this
letter more extensive than usual

Subtitled by
-♪ online-courses.club ♪-
We compress knowledge for you!
https://t.me/joinchat/ailxpXoW3JVjYzQ1

because I have no time
to write it shorter. "

I was going to a script
workshop where I was about six months

trying to write a synopsis

of what the movie I
ended up writing would be

and until he had approved the synopsis

In the workshop they didn't
allow me to start writing the script.

Beyond that one feels
that one is prepared

and one wants to dive into the script

and start putting
"inside such a thing, day,

outside such a thing, night ",

it is best to have a little patience

and go through this
moment of writing the synopsis

That is very important.

The synopsis is like the
dramatic development of the story

in its most
substantial, shorter version.

It's like the synthesis of the
whole story where we have to put

the main features of the protagonists,

the conflict, the antagonistic force,

the most important instances
of the dramatic progression,

the main scenarios
where the story occurs

and the outcome.

Let's see a little tap

what are the main features

That our synopsis should have.

In principle you have to
present the dramatic line

clearly and without subplots.

That is, what is the
main plot of the story.

What is the story about
without deviating with subplots

or with things that don't do the
action and reaction of the story.

It has to be very specific about
the protagonist or the protagonist.

Whether or not he succeeds in
doing what he set out to do.

Then you must describe the
situation of the protagonist,

Who is it and where is it?

You must indicate what the
protagonist wants, what is his objective.

This is the desire, it is the
force that moves the protagonist.

This, at best, has
to be very specific.

You have to say, for example,
"Zamba wants the revolution",

"Siesta wants Romeo and
Juliet to be together."

It has to be very, very clear.

Also the synopsis tells what
are the obstacles to achieve

What the protagonist wants.

That is, the antagonistic
force. This has to be very prominent.

There has to be an
obstacle by which the protagonist

He can't achieve what he wants.

The antagonist can be
personified in a person

or it can be any
other force that prevents

that the protagonist or the
protagonist achieve what he wants.

The synopsis must
also describe the actions

that the protagonist is
taking throughout history.

You don't have to
describe the antagonist,

don't waste time
describing that you are bad people,

You want such a thing, and so on.

No need to put your phones exactly,

What does the antagonist want?

We care in the synopsis

Know exactly what
our protagonist wants.

Also the synopsis must
announce the decision

that the protagonist
will take in the crisis,

in what we saw as climax,

You must say at the
exit of the second act.

We have to say what
the protagonist will do.

You have to point out
what the climax is clearly.

Many times we write the synopsis

and we finished reading it and
we don't know if it ended or not.

Many times the trick would be to put

until he finally
manages to do such a thing

or until the end of the movie,

No problem, you can say
achieve such a thing or such.

Also the synopsis has to prepare

the arc of
transformation of the protagonist.

It has to show, for example,

until he finally
realizes such and such

and decides to make such a decision.

Then it works very well
if the synopsis tells us

what that protagonist became.

Ideally, the protagonist change
during the story, learn something.

And finally, the synopsis should show

What genre is our story.

If it's action, if it's
horror, if it's anime.

We would have to somehow
intuit already reading the synopsis

What kind of content
are we going to see.

Let's see an example with the
synopsis of the "Petit" series.

Then we will see an example
of a synopsis of a chapter.

But when we are doing
our audiovisual project

in the folder we should, in
principle, write the synopsis of the series,

tell about the series in general

and then tell what each
of the chapters is about.

The synopsis of the
"Petit" series goes like this:

"Petit, in brackets
his age, five years,

in his eagerness to fulfill his wishes

it uses the most
imaginative and original logics.

Petit's ideas are innocent
but defy the logic of the world

and they show their contradictions.

It doesn't matter if
you're right or not,

Petit never gives up,

even if the world thinks otherwise. "

Notice that here we
are telling a character,

what is your wish

what do you want to
achieve, what is proposed,

and uses logic that is
imaginative and original.

The logic of the world
would somehow be its antagonist.

And in the last paragraph

We say it doesn't
matter if he’s right or not,

He never gives up.

We are suggesting an end.

So we are telling a protagonist,

what are the forces
that are in conflict

and what could apparently happen

at the end of each episode.

Let's turn to the
example of one of the episodes.

Let's take, for example, the pet week.

It is the week of pets at school.

Petit must draw his own, but the
problem is that he doesn't have it.

Then he draws his
imaginary pet, a dog.

He asks a dog for his parents,

but they give him a
very unfriendly bird.

While Petit tries to draw it,

the bird escapes and
trying to retrieve it

Petit meets Tadeo, a dog,

That turns out to be the
same as your imaginary pet.

Notice that this
synopsis is already suggested,

not only the whole chapter,

but a scheme of forces is suggested.

We start by telling what is
happening with the approach,

what is the week of pets at school

and Petit must draw his own, but the
problem is that he doesn't have it.

There is a conflict

which is clearly defined in
what the first act would be.

What does Petit do
then, Petit reaction.

Draw an imaginary pet, a dog.

And on the other hand,
insisting with a Petit reaction,

a dog asks his parents.

Action, a kickback, something happens,

the parents give him
an unfriendly bird.

What does Petit do with
this? What is your reaction?

Well, try to draw it,

but it happens that it
escapes in that attempt.

And again, try to recover it.

And for that attempt to
recover it he finds Thaddeus,

which turns out to be the same as the
pet he had imagined in the first place.

Notice that actions and reactions

they are chained in such a way

that the writer's
occurrences should not appear,

but things have to happen

As action and reaction.

Without an action there
should be no other reaction

and the actions should be progressive.

In this way, and I insist, this
synopsis could also be written in another way,

It's not a perfect synopsis

but more or less it
makes clear a beginning.

what is the will of the
protagonist and what happens in the end.

It is important that in the synopsis

let's not do as in the movie sales,

where he says, for
example, Petit must draw his own,

the problem is that it
doesn't have and then we put

Petit must manage them

to get a pet and be happy, anything.

We are not putting
an end with ellipses.

In the synopsis of the episode
we spoil it, we tell the end.

We are working with people
who are going to put money

or do you want to finance our project

and we can't tell them and
exciting things will happen.

We have to tell them as scriptwriters

or as filmmakers

how are we going to
finish each of the chapters.

We already know how
to write a synopsis.

We already have,
theoretically, the synopsis of our series,

the synopsis,
ideally, of some chapters.

All that will go to our folder.

Once we have this,
let's go to the next step,

that is going to be to give
it a little more extension.

Then we will get into
the scale of our chapter.
