SCRIVENER FOR WINDOWS WITH AEON TIMELINE 2 MOVIE
There are a lot of considerations to be made over and above a movie script. Musical stage plays are curious things to put on paper. Very pleasant on the eyes.Īnd I had layout freedom. And the standard font used by the app, Courier Final Draft, I started to enjoy. I found FD12’s predictive character name choices to be quite accurate and logical. When it comes to writing in Final Draft, I enjoyed it. Even tagging seems to be for the wardrobe and effects departments rather than for the writer.
Many people claim that the features in Final Draft are more suited to the production process than the writing process. Although on macOS Catalina, I experienced several crashes. None of them was stellar in design and would be far better served by third-party applications, so they were a moot point for me. A few new features along the lines of story building had appeared. The new version had addressed many of the common gripes. Having toyed with Final Draft 11, I noticed a few things had changed. Bear in mind this was Final Draft 12, the version that had was released in 2021. After having gone through all the scriptwriting apps and finding minor niggles I either didn’t like or were showstoppers for me, I took the Final Draft demo for a spin. Then a funny thing happened on the way to the writing desk. Plus, it was amongst the most expensive of the writing apps. The hatred was so widespread and vehement in many of the writing forums that I took it at face value that this was an app I had to avoid. Throughout my research, I came across a great deal of deep-seated hatred for the big granddaddy of the scriptwriting scene: Final Draft. I tried several, if not all, of the popular scriptwriting apps, trying to find the perfect balance between function and aesthetic - I don’t like working with ugly tools. So for long-form writing, this ended up being a one horse race, betting on a horse I didn't even want to win. I am truly a romantic at heart, I savour antiquity, but not when it comes to software. Goodness knows how many writers use this app, and indeed swear by it. I did consider the possibility of using Highland or Final Draft for long-form manuscripts, but although each of them can do it, I'm not really sure you'd want to. And it handles manuscript and book publishing very well indeed. Structured, organised, with almost all the tools you might need to write long-form. As a structured writing tool for long-form writing, it’s pretty neat. But for writing my first novel, I find myself currently back with it, and in fact, I am writing this blog post now in Ulysses. Well, maybe not love-hate, more of a love-confused relationship. I have gone back and forth with this app over the years in a love-hate relationship.
