Loglines
Catchy, compelling, and very concise, loglines convey story, genre, character, and conflict -- designed to pique interest and encapsulate the main elements of a script. I prepare several variations of different lengths and styles for you to consider and use for myriad marketing and publicity purposes.
Sample
“Disturbia”
When a troubled teenager is placed under house arrest, a mixture of boredom and voyeurism make him suspect that his neighbor is a serial killer. Despite confinement, authorities’ disbelief, and the killer’s imminent retaliation, he struggles to stop the psychopath before the blood trail leads to his own doorstep.
“Liar Liar”
Superstar lawyer but bad father Fletcher Reed finds himself in a predicament when his son’s birthday wish comes true – Fletcher cannot tell a lie for 24 hours. Hilarity ensues as his career is threatened by brutal sincerity. Now, he must reexamine his values to win an honest victory – or lose forever what he cares about most.
"Sit Pretty"
Dana and Artie have been dating for only a short time, but when he suspects her of cheating, his true psychotic nature emerges -- he imprisons her in a dog kennel and subjects her to harrowing "obedience training". Little does Artie know that he was right to be suspicious of her -- but for a very different reason; with her shocking true identity unknown to him, Dana devises her escape with the help of equally abused canine prisoners, and sets out to enact justice.
“Margie”
An insightful portrait of the revolutionary Margaret Walburn who waged an emotionally and politically charged war against the American justice system at the height of the civil rights movement.
“Sweet Nothings”
Twenty-something Manhattanites struggle both comically and tragically to find equilibrium between love, sex, and professional life.
“Under Your Skin”
A frightening, complex portrait of the infamous serial killer Ed Gein, rife with bloodshed and a healthy spattering of empathy.
