Step outline
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A step outline is a detailed telling of a story intended to be turned into a screenplay for a motion picture.
The step outline details every scene and beat of a screenplay's story, and often has indications for dialog and character interactions. The scenes are often numbered for convenience. It is more detailed and specific than either a treatment or an outline.
It can also be an extremely useful tool for a writer working on a spec script.
