Week 3 ( 10 April 2018 )

On the third week of class, Mr. Martin lectures us about 3- Act Structure. We know that to create a better storyline for a video, must have followed these 3- Act Structure as a basic.


3 – ACT Structure
1. Beginning: Setup / introduction of a story
2. Middle: Confrontation of a problem in the story
3. End: Resolution of problems


Below are the important things that we need to know:


1. Setup:
• To establish the dramatic situation
• To introduce the main characters.
• Leads to an incident that complicates the story

2. Confrontation:
• Known as ‘Rising Action’
• To develop obstacles / complications
• Leads to climax of the story

3. Resolution (Denouement):
• Answer to all obstacles / problems
• Tying the loose ends
• Ending of climax


As an example to understand this 3-Act structure we watched a short film called 'Spider'.
