Best collaborative writing
Comentários: I have used Final Draft as a student and then on some companies where I worked. On my new job this is the software we use for every script and I find it so comfortable and easy to use and to send the new versions. Is great to collaborate specially when developing tv scripts, I like the option to track the changes and the beat cards.
Vantagens:
Final Draft is the best option when you are a professional writer. Even there are other softwares Final Draft is the one if you are working on the film or tv industry as most proffesionals and producers tend to use this one. The new version is great and the options to write along a colleague and see changes on real time is what I love the most.
Desvantagens:
I think is a little expensive for the ones that are just starting. Is not that much intuitive you need to learn trough the practice, but anyways there are plenty of tutorials on their site
Essential Software
Comentários: I’ve had a good time using it as I sold a script. Wouldn’t have been possible without it.
Vantagens:
Absolutely essential for screenwriting. So once I made the leap and spent the money ($200) it was incredibly easy to write my script. The one time I needed support it was personal and solved my problem
Desvantagens:
Just a bit of a learning curve with not much instruction. You have to kind of intuitively figure it out
The biggest brand, but not the greatest value
Comentários: I loved what I accomplished with it. Seeing the scripts and really getting a knack for the craft that brought them to life. I was unfortunately rubbed the wrong way by the way my script fell apart and being told the only way to save my work was to buy the incredibly expensive, new version of the software. This led me to a much more cost-effective alternative that I have been incredibly happy with since.
Vantagens:
There was an incredible thrill seeing a software that easily and smoothly formatted my words into industry standard screenplays -- ESPECIALLY after having done it for quite some time manually in a more commonly used word processor. The ease of use and the quality of the final document was a true thrill when I was beginning my career.
Desvantagens:
The list is long. Numerous features never worked for reasons that as far as I can tell were due to the compatibility of different software versions. While that might sound reasonable, the updates were frequent and always cost substantial amounts of money (for just an update!). This led to several collaborators having a different version of Final Draft that couldn't communicate with each other. While I understand the need for updates, I do not understand the frequency and the fact that it would knock out certain features such as the writer collaborating feature (which can now be easily replicated with online websites). I also reached a point where my software was working fine, but told that I needed to update it in order to work with my new computer. I went along with this, yet the update completely crashed my software, leading me to find alternative options.
Final Draft Update 13.2.0 Brings Redemption
Comentários: Final Draft (FD) has redeemed itself with the wonderful 13.2.0 update. I, like so many others, had mixed feelings with the initial version 13.0.0 release. But with the latest update, the Final Draft team has redirected its efforts to something we may all appreciate, and that new feature is called Autocorrect. Like the great novel-writing software, Scrivener, the equally great screenwriting software, Final Draft v13.2.0, now has an autocorrection facility. Hundreds of words will automatically be corrected as you write your screenplay. For example, "theif" will change to "thief" before your very eyes. But more than that, you can add your own corrections or make changes to the list. For example, you may wish to have your characters capitalised wherever their names appear in your screenplay. To do this, in the Windows version of FD, click the Tools menu > Options > Autocorrect tab ... once there, click the + button, type "clarence" in the left column and "Clarence" in the right column, click OK and you're done. Go further to make your writing smoother: make "im" = "I'm", "ive" = "I've"; but take care with "ill" = "I'll" because "ill" may be written to mean "sick"; instead use "il" for "I'll". This is what many of us ask from Final Draft: empower our writing, facilitate the nitty-gritty process of typing. The Macro utility, Typewriter Mode and now Autocorrect help our writing to flow. And this is what makes Final Draft arguably the best screenwriting software, just edging out some fantastic competitors. After all, more than any one feature, we write 70, 80, 90 or more pages of a screenplay. We write — that is our modus operandi. Why lose a millisecond pressing the Shift key to capitalise a character's name? Why lose a couple of seconds to correct a spelling error? Why continually scroll to keep the writing near the top of the screen (closer to eye level)? To the incredible credit of the FD team, it has listened and has set itself back on course to enable writers to write more smoothly and flowingly. For many screenwriters, to list Emojis as a new feature — as was the case in the initial 13.0.0 release — was too much to take. Right or wrong, screenwriters take their craft and creative efforts a little more seriously than to work out where to place a smiley face or a sad face. Another new feature of the initial release is Stats, which would interest producers more than writers. Set Goals is more for professional screenwriters on contracts than probably hobbyists who are at the mercy of the Muses. The new Autocorrect feature, introduced in 13.2.0, is likely to bring back into the fold many disaffected FD users.
Vantagens:
# provides great story-planning tools # facilitates smooth writing # has uncluttered workspace # exhibits bits and pieces of intelligence everywhere # has an easy-to-learn Macro Utility # quick response-time from the Final Draft team to user-concerns
Desvantagens:
There isn't much to dislike as it provides options. If you don't want to use a certain feature, you don't have to. If you don't like a certain feature and can't ignore it, you probably have the choice of using another feature to do the job.
The only writing software you need
Comentários: Overall, I would not make a switch to another software. I have tried a couple of free writing software, and we have to pay about $100 or sometimes a little more for Final Draft but it is the best software out there and makes our life very easy without us having to worry about anything.
Vantagens:
I have tried a couple of screenwriting software, but this is pretty much the industry standard, and for a good reason. The Final Draft allows you to just begin writing as soon as you open it without us having to worry about the format. Not to mention the other features like notes taking and working with different drafts of the same scripts is extremely easy. A very user-friendly software.
Desvantagens:
In some of the older versions, the ability to collaborate with other writers to work on the same project together is not very possible. However, they did change that in the recently updated versions. Sometimes, we are constantly required to update in order to enjoy the new features in the updated versions, which can be sometimes very costly. But if we just want a standard writing software that is used industry-wise, then Final Draft does the job very well.
