Liselle Sambury | Save the Cat Deep Dive: Full Beat Sheet Example @LiselleSambury | Uploaded May 2024 | Updated October 2024, 4 hours ago.
In this finale of the Save the Cat Deep Dive series, I share an example of a fully completed beat sheet the way I would construct one for a story, and provide commentary on what I make the choices that I do. As I said in the video, I recommend that before watching this video you:
1. Read the original Save the Cat story structure. This could be Save the Cat Writes a Novel by Jessica Brody (which I read), or the original Save the Cat by Blake Synder
2. Watch the video I made about creating complex characters (this is included in the playlist)
3. Watch the playlist of the Save the Cat Deep Dive series on this channel. Or, at the very least, if you're just interested in a specific beat, watch the video for that beat and then come here for the example
4. Download the full beat sheet so you can follow along during the video
