Но я сохранил страничку. Скажите, в каком у Вас жанре сценарий? Там они для трёх жанров разбирают структуру. Хотя она однотипная.
MYSTERY
Mystery -- The main character(s) is/are presented with something, or a situation, which has no immediate or apparent explanation. His/her/their goal is to makes sense of the clues and circumstances that constitute the present situation. The main character has a limited amount of time (choose a logical time constraint) to:
Overcome obstacles that keep him/her/them from understanding events and learn something about him/her/themselves along the way.
Setup - (approx. 2.5 pages): How do we know the main character has a mystery to solve and why is it important that he/she/they solve it?
What does the main character want? (conscious motivation) What does the main character need? (Unconscious motivation) (Needs and wants are best when in conflict with each other.)
What is the time constraint placed on the main character to solve the mystery? How do we see time slipping away?
What are the stakes if the main character does not solve the mystery?
Inciting Incident - (at approx. pp. 2.5-3.5): What springs the character into action? The setup is complete once the inciting incident sends the character on his/her/their journey towards the goal. It is something that demands the main character to act.
The Middle The rising action (5 to 6 pages): What does the main character do to achieve his/her/their goal?
What are the obstacles that are getting in the way of the main character’s goal?
How do the obstacles get bigger and bigger, resulting in rising action?
What are the complications? A complication should be unexpected and can arrive in the form of a character, circumstance, event, mistake, misunderstanding or discovery.
What is the reversal or midpoint of your story? What happens that allows the main character to think that perhaps he/she/they are on the right track, or perhaps the wrong track? Perhaps it is a pseudo-resolution that appears to resolve the mystery, but ultimately causes more problems.
What are the tactics your character uses to achieve his/her/their goals? How do obstacles and complications force your character to change tactics?
The Climax (at approx. pp. 7.5-8.5): This is the high point of the drama/comedy where the stakes are the highest and the character’s goals are in the greatest jeopardy.
What is the climax of the story?
Was your character able to accomplish his/her/their goal in the time allotted?
The Resolution (2.5-3 pages): Has the main character achieved his/her/their goal? How has the character changed because of the experience and how is that shown?
Mystery Films: Mona Lisa -- drama The Crying Game -- drama Field of Dreams -- drama Murder on the Orient Express - drama The Winslow Boy - drama Raiders of the Lost Ark - drama
