Five Minute SitCom

 








The Five Minute Sitcom:
The first act, the setting, the situation, the characters, and their relationships are introduced. At some point – maybe the end of the first act -  a conflict arises.

In the second act, there are plot points and twists that cause a climax at the end of the second act. The climax is where the highest moment of excitement occurs, or the moment where the protagonist or the antagonist’s fate changes for better or for worse.

In the third act, there is the resolution, and the falling action or the denouement occurs.  There are no unanswered questions.
