First Look: Celtx, open sou... |
If you’re interested in writing a screenplay, a teleplay, or a stage play, you could use an ordinary word processor. Unfortunately, each script style requires different page margins and formatting conventions. You could take the time to define these formatting styles yourself, or you could just use a special scriptwriting program that does this for you automatically. Rather than pay $200 or more for a commercial screenwriting program, try the open source Celtx scriptwriter instead.When you first start the program, you can choose the type of formatting you need, such as for a film, theater, comic book, audio-visual presentation, or radio script. If you want, you can even use the program as an ordinary word processor. |
