The "Treatment" - due 9/16
The treatment is nothing more than a preview of the script. By March 23rd, share with Mr. Wolotsky one idea in which you preview a possible script for the idea you are considering. This need not be the idea that becomes your final project. Please submit this to me via Google Docs(fishwhistle08@gmail.com) and be prepared to read your treatment aloud in class.Your treatment will contain:
a possible title
a few words about main characters or players
setting
major events
perhaps logistics if important
Your treatment should not be too long. 75-150 words sounds good.
