As the generally recommended script length gets shorter (from 120 to 110 or 105) is there a general consensus on how this effects act lengths?
The classic standard guidelines based on 120 pages are:
Act 1 = approx. 30 pages
Act 2 = approx. 60 pages
(midpoint at approx. page 60)
Act 3 = approx. 30 pages
Does the shortening of the script reduce all the acts proportionally? Or would the standard 30 page Act 1 remain the same and the others get shorter?
Is there any kind of new standard?
