    Documentary Logline

    Discussion in 'Genre Discussions' started by qqqavi, Nov 5, 2019.

    Hi everyone,

    I apologies if this has been asked before. I´m not a writer and I can´t find how to write a logline for a documentary. I would like to know if you can give me any tips or where I can find information.
    Any help would be appreciated.

    Thank you.

    Thank you. But those are more or feature films. I know sometimes documentaries are not very different when it comes to the structure of the logline.

    I think at the core the concept is extrapolated from the way one would write one
    for a book, or a film, it is just the mechanics of writing a sentence that grabs the
    audiences attention while covering the whole of the work it is representing. :)
