3 Act Structure

As the editor I will have to make the structure of the film work and when it comes to drama the most common structure is the 3 act structure. I was watching Pitch Perfect the other day and towards the end I, for some reason, thought of the 3 act structure and how it is actually so common in most films. I think that this is a good example to demonstrate how the 3 act structure works. They work their way up and become close to qualifying but then they don't and loose everything. They then get a second chance when another team pull out and then go through and win.

I think in our piece it starts with Robert and him happily playing golf but then it starts to take everything away from him. He looses his sight and can not play golf properly. Its not till after he looses himself and hallucinates about killing a homeless man and taking his eye out that he then starts to get himself back. He then realises he can still play golf and actually he's not lost everything
