The main thing in filmmaking is the story and script.

Here are some aspects to build story and script.

Foundation:

The foundation of the story tells us about the main plot of the story. Just build the basic story in just 3 lines.

For example:

In Game of thrones there are many houses who want to win the iron throne and this story tells us about it.

Characters:

The characters and their names should be relatable to the story like Professor of the Money Heist.

This character relates the planning of the heist to the heist and how they planned it.

Building:

Now, when you have foundation, you’ll build the story. Just keep your story in center and revolving the characters around that story in different ways.

Halves:

If it is a movie then cut your story into two halves.

First Halve:

1st halve has moderate speed of story line. In 1st halve, build the story with some straight line with few twists.

Second Halve:

In 2nd halve the speed of the story line is fast, it is full of twists and turns.

Web Series:

If it is a web series, then the start and end of the episode has some twist, crunch and hungriness that enhance the audience to desperately see the next coming episode.

Besides that the episode story line is in moderate speed but keep on fluctuating the speed like

One episode is in one day and next is in 4 to 5 days.

One day episode has slow story line speed and 4 to 5 days have long story line.

Climax:

In film, the climax is much awaiting event. In it, there must be epicness that makes it epic,

Big and extreme because its name is climax means extreme with non-thinkable turns of the story.

To make the hype of your film or web series try something that is signature style of it. For example, Dali masks in Money heist, Dragons in Game of Thrones, Cigratte Style in Peaky Blinders and the seriousness of Wednesday in Wednesday Addams and many other examples which make your film or web series a block buster.
