I have been studying story for so many years and I am starting to make an "every plot is the same" document, to show that inherently, the three-act structure is the exact same, no matter what "plot format" you are trying to use. Here we have outlined:

The Plot Embryo

Save the Cat Beats

6 Act Structure (Fit into three acts)

7 Point Structure

I've been going back and forth on creating writing courses just for funsies, but this has been fun to do and analyze!
