Actor Dictionary | High Concept Idea

Anyone who wants to make a commercially viable movie loves a high concept idea. This is a premise or an idea that can be described succinctly in very few words and can be effectively advertised. It' often an idea that isn't grounded in reality but can easily be imagined if it was. High concept narratives are typically associated with a "what if?" scenario that sets the story in motion.
