Beat Sheet Template

Beat Sheet Template, within the Milanote app

Map out your story using a beat sheet

This beat sheet is perfect for organizing your story into Blake Snyder's famous 15 beat structure. The beat sheet is a simple way to break the three-act screenplay structure into 15 bite-size, manageable sections called beats, each with a specific goal for your story.

Milanote's drag-and-drop interface allows you to arrange columns, notes, lines, links, files, videos and tasks on an infinite virtual canvas. When you're finished your beat sheet, everything can be shared with your team for further collaboration and ideas.
