The Choice of Hollywood Professionals
Are you a
Hollywood professional or a first-time writer? Makes no difference: Movie Magic
Screenwriter 2000 has virtually every feature invented to improve your writing
process! Within minutes of opening the box, you'll experience the magic of a
writing tool with stunningly intelligent design.
What Does a Script Formatter Do?
Writing scripts for
film, television, and theater has traditionally been a time-consuming task.
There are many elements in a script (i.e. scene headings, character names,
dialogue, scene breaks, etc.) that must be correctly placed in your script.
Following these conventions is essential in making sure your script is
receiving proper attention from agents, producers and contests.
That's where a script formatting program comes in. Screenwriter 2000 works by
your side, automatically formatting action, character name, dialog and other
elements as you write your script. Even better, there are no function keys or
special command keys to memorize -- your fingers stay on the keyboard,
always ready for creative thoughts to flow onto the page!
Why Screenwriter 2000?
All writing tools are
not created equal. Naturally, Screenwriter uses a simple TAB-ENTER system to
quickly get your creative thoughts flowing into the computer. Screenwriter has
index cards, script notes, simple entry of character names, spell-checking, and
of course, smart margin changing. The comparison ends here.
Screenwriter alone has a full suite of internet features, such as
real-time internet collaboration, online script registration, and export to
Adobe Acrobat© PDF format; superior production features, such as built-in
script breakdown and detailed export to Movie Magic Scheduling; Script Analysis
features; and the finest import and export facilities in the world of
screenwriting.
 |
Nothing Could Be Easier
Just hit the "Tab" and "Enter" keys to move between different script
elements such as Character, Dialogue, Action, etc. That's all you need to know!
Since Screenwriter is instantly and automatically handling all the hassles of
Industry Standard Formatting, you can focus on writing your story as fast as
you can get your thoughts onto the screen! |
|
Your Personal Typing Assistant
Type just a few letters of the desired character name, set, scene, etc., and
Screenwriter will enter it instantly. Screenwriter's intelligent interface that
can virtually read your mind, and pop up menus with the text items you want,
without your even needing to tell it you want them. |
 |
Brainstorm and Organize Your Ideas
Do you prefer to work with index cards? Screenwriter 2000's built-in index card
system lets you edit your screenplay and rearrange scenes on fully editable
index cards-on-screen! As you develop a new story, you'll be able to quickly
write desired scenes, sequences, and plot points on blank index cards and
easily shuffle the scenes as the plot and story are fleshed out. Screenwriter
even reformats and re-numbers your scenes for you! |
|
A Fully-Featured Word Processor
Screenwriter 2000 is a full-featured word processor which includes dictionary
(110,000+ words), thesaurus (80,000 word links), Real-Time Spell Checking with
Auto-Typo Correction for basic letter inversion corrections, and full support
of foreign characters. 10 levels of Undo/ Redo assures that none of your
changes are ever final! |
 |
No Writer is an Island
With
iPartner Internet Collaboration, Screenwriter 2000 allows you and a partner to
collaborate on a script live over the Internet. iPartner lets either one of you
watch over your partner's shoulder as they compose and edit, allowing the
viewing partner to see all the edits and additions as they are made just as if
you were in the same room.
** Real-time text and voice chat lets you
break the distance barrier (without the long distance phone changes)!
|
 |
A Virtual Proofreader
Screenwriter
2000's SmartCheck scans your entire script looking for and correcting common
formatting errors. You'll never again have to reprint your script to fix errors
like extra blank lines or characters who you inadvertently left speaking twice
in a row. Go to print and it scans the script, instantly zeroing in on the most
common typing & editing errors. It points them out to you (optionally even
automatically fixing them!) saving you from wasting paper and hours of your
time reprinting pages. |
 |
A Cast of Performers at Your Side
Have a live script reading performed right on your computer with Screenwriter
2000's Text to Speech! Assign different male and female voices to your
different characters to hear a whole new perspective on your script.
Are you an actor who wants to practice your lines? Simply turn off the voice
for your character and the program will automatically pause for your dialogue,
letting you play along with the program, practicing with cues and all!
|
|
Don't Let Your Old Work Go To Waste
Screenwriter can import and export almost any text document (e.g. RTF, MS Word,
Word Perfect, ASCII), as well as scripts written with most other screenwriting
programs. And since Screenwriter imports using context recognition, imported
scripts are much accurate than with other script writing software
programs. |
 |
Better Than Post-Its©
Jot down
revision notes, casting suggestions, and research questions quicker than you
can slap on a Post-it. The new Note Commander feature allows you to quickly
organize, access, view and print your script notes. You can hide or show your
notes, and print them separately in a report with page-number
references. |
|
What's in a Name?
Your characters
are unique, and their names should be too. Create countless unique character
names from NameBank's huge database of male, female, and last
names. |
 |
Move Through Your Script with the Click of
a Button
Instantly find and jump to any scene in your script with Scene
Pilot™. Scene Pilot shows the first few lines from every scene so you can
quickly identify the scene you are searching for. |

script, to inserting or removing revision marks, to production breakdown sheets
of your script, to preparing production information for export to Movie Magic
Scheduling. |

multi-locking, an Automated Revision Draft process, onscreen Revision Draft

Complete Production Breakdown Report and
export to Movie Magic Scheduling
Screenwriter 2000's Tagging Mode
allows you to go through your script and literally TAG anything in the script
as one of over 20 categories ranging from Props to Sound Effects to Stunts to
anything else you need. Once anything is tagged, Screenwriter will include it
in one of its many breakdowns in addition to exporting that information
directly to Movie Magic Scheduling. |
Screenwriter generates internal
breakdown sheets, and allows you to sort breakdowns by script order, INTERIOR
vs. EXTERIOR, Location, Time of Day, and Characters. Production Breakdown
Graphs allow easy visualization of character use throughout a script.
Screenwriter can even generate Scene Character Lists and Set Lists for TV
production!
So why is Movie Magic Screenwriter the choice of
Hollywood professionals? Because Screenwriter doesn't just Do It All --
Screenwriter Does It Better. Way Better. Faster, More Reliable, and Easier to
use than all the rest. Period. End of Story. Fade Out.
