CHThis is the easiest logline structure that’s most appealing to producers, festivals and 99% of the people you’re going to pitch:
A [format] [genre] about a [adjective] [protagonist] who must [obstacle] in order to [dream]
Like this:
A feature-length rom com about a ditsy blonde who must get into Harvard Law in order to win back her boyfriend
Except you can’t use that one, because it’s Legally Blonde 😂🎀
For festivals and your FilmFreeway page, use this structure right at the top of the info about your film
It’s snappy, it gets people’s attention and makes them want to watch
And that’s what festivals will often use in their programmes and marketing promoting your film, so the better your logline is, the more people will show up to see it
When I ran marketing and comms for a film festival, I used most of the content the filmmakers gave in their FilmFreeway page. The better your content is, the easier it is for festivals to market and promote your film
For events and screenings, use this logline format when people ask what you’re working on next
It’s short enough to not feel like you’re suddenly overwhelming them whilst still giving them all the key info that’ll make them want to know more (and hopefully ask for the script)
Save this post so you can use this for your next film
But first, make sure you’re following me. I share tips, insights and insider info to help you create your most successful film yet
