fo-script-aid-lite: a writing room

Plugin types: Script Writers.

Script Aid Lite is the lighter of FilmOpen’s two screenwriting plugins: one writer in five roles, story editor, architect, writer, reader and revision writer. It develops your concept and writes the screenplay into the project, one scene at a time. A run of a pilot costs about USD 20 at the measure taken when it was built. Its heavier sibling is Script Aid.

Use it

1. Install and allow Script Aid Lite in Settings → Plugins.
2. Open your project’s Workflow tab. Steps run on the project, folder or scene the tab is open on.
3. Tell the story, then Create folders here in your own words (three seasons, five episodes, two acts), Refine the synopsis, Describe the scenes, and on a scene Write the scene and Change the scene.
4. Each step ends in a proposal. Review it and press Apply.

Write the scene keeps your quoted lines word for word. A speaker you name who isn’t a character yet becomes one. Change the scene works on the blocks the project holds now, so your own edits are what it changes.

Each step uses a text model on a platform you have set up: see the platforms.
