After all, before actors sign on to a movie, the lights come on, and the cameras start rolling, a script is written. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.peerspace.com\/resources\/screenwriting-tips\/\">Screenwriting is a process<\/a> in itself that comes with many guidelines and techniques to create a strong story. Besides writing a tale with a characterized location, one technique often used in screenwriting is the montage.

An effective montage will affect the story and character\u2019s arc, as well as support the theme of the story. Montages are useful to express what happens to a character in either a short or long span of time, conveying a lot of information about how a character chooses to react to a situation. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition, a montage can help move the story along past a necessary point that isn\u2019t the main point, as well as be an interesting way to introduce a character to an audience or portray a relationship. Whatever the case, montages show a large amount of visual information in a quick and efficient way.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Some of the most famous montages include the <em>Rocky<\/em> training montage, the opening married life montage from Disney and Pixar&#8217;s <em>Up<\/em>, and the ending death montage from <em>American Beauty<\/em>. Each of these montages is a key part of the story. Without them, the stories are significantly weaker. If you&#8217;re interested in creating a montage for your film, we&#8217;ll share the most effective ways of doing so ahead.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em>Is this your first major film project?

As far as writing montages go, there are no hard and fast rules to follow. Every screenwriter will write it in a different way. What matters is that the writing is understandable and translates your visuals well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>An important factor to keep in mind is the heading. For example, a heading for the beginning of the scene might look like this:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>INT. MILLENIUM FALCON \u2013 NIGHT<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So, now if your montage takes place entirely in one location, you might add to that header, \u201cMONTAGE,\u201d like so:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>INT. MILLENIUM FALCON \u2013 MONTAGE<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If it takes place in multiple locations, then it might be best to have a clear heading that the montage is beginning and a clear marker that the montage has ended. This way, the locations and scenes can stand out as part of a sequence. Then you can start listing off your series of shots with bullet points, hyphens, numbers, the alphabet, or whatever you think looks cleanest with what you\u2019ve written.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"How-montages-translate-from-page-to-screen\">How montages translate from page to screen<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><picture><source srcset=\"https:\/\/www.peerspace.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/detroit-Drive-In-Industrial-Production-Space-1024x683.avif 1024w,https:\/\/www.peerspace.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/detroit-Drive-In-Industrial-Production-Space-300x200.avif 300w,https:\/\/www.peerspace.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/detroit-Drive-In-Industrial-Production-Space-768x512.avif 768w,https:\/\/www.peerspace.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/detroit-Drive-In-Industrial-Production-Space-750x500.avif 750w,https:\/\/www.peerspace.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/detroit-Drive-In-Industrial-Production-Space.avif 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" type=\"image\/avif\"><source srcset=\"https:\/\/www.peerspace.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/detroit-Drive-In-Industrial-Production-Space-1024x683.webp 1024w,https:\/\/www.peerspace.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/detroit-Drive-In-Industrial-Production-Space-300x200.webp 300w,https:\/\/www.peerspace.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/detroit-Drive-In-Industrial-Production-Space-768x512.webp 768w,https:\/\/www.peerspace.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/detroit-Drive-In-Industrial-Production-Space-750x500.webp 750w,https:\/\/www.peerspace.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/detroit-Drive-In-Industrial-Production-Space.webp 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" type=\"image\/webp\"><img src=\"https:\/\/www.peerspace.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/detroit-Drive-In-Industrial-Production-Space-1024x683.jpeg\" height=\"683\" width=\"1024\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.peerspace.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/detroit-Drive-In-Industrial-Production-Space-1024x683.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/www.peerspace.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/detroit-Drive-In-Industrial-Production-Space-300x200.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/www.peerspace.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/detroit-Drive-In-Industrial-Production-Space-768x512.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/www.peerspace.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/detroit-Drive-In-Industrial-Production-Space-750x500.jpeg 750w, https:\/\/www.peerspace.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/detroit-Drive-In-Industrial-Production-Space.jpeg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" class=\"wp-image-93275 sp-no-webp\" alt=\"Drive-In Industrial Production Space - Detroit\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\"  > <\/picture><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Source: Peerspace<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Next, we&#8217;ll share how montage scenes across the same and differing locations will affect your script writing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><em>Toy Story<\/em> montage sequence with a single location<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Toy Story <\/em>has a memorable montage scene that takes place within one location.
