When the Ursa Mini Pro was launched recently, no-one knew that Bluetooth capability was hidden inside every camera. Now Blackmagic has turned it on and it’s a bit of a work of genius.

Classic Hollywood Structure

A quick guide to the seven plot points in classic Hollywood-style story. A vast majority of films, both inside and outside Hollywood, can be broken down into these seven plot points. You can apply these to your own films as well!

Hook: Intro to the world and characters. Grabs the audience’s attention.

Inciting Incident: the catalyst that begins the main action/conflict

First Act Turning Point: the protagonist(s) get(s) involved in the conflict

Midpoint: a significant event spins/changes the main conflict (this is not in every film)

Second Act Turning Point: the low point, or a significant development that changes the direction of the story. The “all hope is lost” moment.

Climax: the final face-off between your protagonist and the opposition.

The Resolution: the fallout or result of the climax.
