Abstract:
The scenario is the final result of the story development process that will be executed into a film. The research "Applying Suspense Technique and Linear Plot to Build Dramatization in The Scriptwriting Kosan” aims to examine the formation of dramatization presented in the story, through various events experienced by the main character. The theory used by the researcher in this scriptwriting is the theory of suspense and linear plot in Elizabeth Lutter's book. The presence of this dramatic suspense element is due to the formation of various events experienced by the main character, thus creating tension in the story. The plot has an important role and cannot be separated from the process of creating a story. Linear plots are used so that the delivery of the story content is more understandable because it only focuses on the central character. Dramatization will be formed when there is a dramatic element. The conclusion of this research, the existence of suspense and linear plots create dramatization. The existence of a linear plot helps the storyline not be complicated so that the tension is easily felt by the audience.
