Believe it or not, with the exception of Linux, I use CELTX on ALL these platforms.Īs an active Director of Photography floor plans are vital in selling directors and clients on lighting schemes and camera positions. An iPad app is also available with (hopefully) an Android app on the way.
CELTX SHOTS FOR WINDOWS MAC OS
I should also mention that CELTX is available in a number of different languages (including Japanese) and across multiple platforms including Windows, Mac OS X, and Linux.
For the average scriptwriter these tools may not be necessary but for the average filmmaker, and especially an indie filmmaker, having all these tools in one box is a godsend. And then CELTX takes it a step further by allowing you to break down your script, storyboard shots, and even create floor plans for lighting and blocking. Despite the glut and massive scale of Hollywood movie productions these days, scriptwriting should be as simple and economical as writing words on a page or typing sentences on a screen. CELTX was the answer for my students and suddenly it became the answer for me because it offered all the scriptwriting tools of Final Draft plus a better way to organize my thoughts. This was also right about the time I was moving my students (I teach scriptwriting at an international film school called ISMP in Torrance, CA) to CELTX because Final Draft licenses were prohibitively expensive. Prior to writing SAKI I had written all my scripts in the software Final Draft, but I ran into some limitations in both using the program to develop my plot and in combining English and Japanese dialogue.
