About this design
Where the Logline style comes from, and what it signals.
Logline is a film pitch deck built the way a screenwriter builds a treatment, not the way a slide tool builds a deck. The reference is the film treatment itself: the short written document a writer hands a producer that carries the logline, the synopsis, the principal characters and the comparable titles. Logline takes that document and gives it screenplay grammar on screen. Each section opens with a Courier slug line in the INT. and EXT. style, the logline sits in its own boxed panel, and the synopsis runs as one serif reading column the way a treatment reads as prose. Three punch holes run down the left margin of every page, so the deck reads like a bound script.
The system runs on two Google Fonts. Newsreader, a literary serif, carries the treatment title, the synopsis, the character names and every value in the format table, so the reading parts feel like a manuscript. Courier Prime, the standard screenplay monospace, sets all the labels: the slug lines, the LOGLINE tag, the character role labels, the comparables tone words, the format table keys, the draft stamp and the page number. The palette stays on warm paper #F3EFE7 with ink #211E1A and a single brick-red #B23A2E that behaves like a revision pencil, a hairline, a stamp, the edge of the logline box and nothing more.
Use Logline when the pitch is the writing. It suits a movie pitch document where the logline and synopsis have to land before any image does, a TV bible opener that introduces characters and tone, or a short story-led pitch where a producer reads rather than watches. It is a quiet, type-only design that trusts the words to do the work.
Use it for
- Screenwriters pitching a feature or a series
- Film and TV treatments and series bibles
- Movie pitch documents led by logline and synopsis
- Story-led pitches read more than presented
Skip it for
- Image-led mood boards and look books
- Data dashboards and financial reporting
The presentation design prompt
This is the exact text that gets sent to your AI.
Create a presentation in the 'Logline' theme: a film treatment and pitch document styled like a readable screenplay on warm manuscript paper. Background: warm paper #F3EFE7, with the occasional panel on #FBFAF6 surface. Typography uses two Google Fonts: 'Newsreader', a literary serif, for the treatment title, the synopsis reading column and character names, at 18 to 56px in ink #211E1A for headings and #4C4842 for body; and 'Courier Prime', a screenplay monospace, for every label, set ALL-CAPS and letter-spaced around 0.2em in muted #8C867A. The layout grammar is screenplay grammar: short Courier slug-line section labels like 'INT. SYNOPSIS . DAY' or 'EXT. THE STAKES . NIGHT' mark each section; the logline sits in a boxed panel at the top of the page, outlined with a 1px hairline (brick-red #B23A2E or border #DAD3C5) and tagged with a small Courier 'LOGLINE' label in the corner; the synopsis runs as a single serif reading column with generous leading; characters are a clean grid of cards, each a Newsreader name over a Courier role label over a one-line serif description; comparables are a single row naming reference films as plain text like 'FILM A x FILM B' with Courier tone and genre words; format facts sit in a label-and-value table, Courier labels on the left, Newsreader values on the right. Brick-red #B23A2E is the single accent, used only as a hairline, a small revision stamp like 'DRAFT 3 . 06.19.2026', or the logline box edge. A Courier page-number footer like '6 / 6' anchors the lower corner like a script page. Down the left margin of every page run three small, evenly spaced punch holes, recessed circles in the paper, so each page reads like a bound script. Keep it quiet, type-only and confident, with hairline rules and wide margins. Strictly avoid: a second accent color, gradients, drop shadows, rounded cards, photos, icons or clipart, sans-serif fonts, dense bullet lists, and decorative shapes other than the binding holes and 1px rules.
