Write

A script editor that thinks in shots

Write like a screenwriter and storyboard as you go: scene headings and speakers format themselves, every line belongs to a shot, and the same script follows you across the board, the canvas and your exports. Import from Final Draft or Fountain, and leave the same way.

Import the script you already have

Bring in Final Draft (.fdx), Fountain, Word or plain text, or simply paste the pages. Before anything is created you see exactly how every scene and line was read, so the script lands in your project just as you wrote it.

Write like a screenplay

Scene headings, speakers and dialogue take proper screenplay form as you write: headings in caps, dialogue indented, the page reading the way a script should. Press Tab to start a line of dialogue, and the / menu drops in captions, production notes and lyrics.

Export a properly formatted screenplay

Send the script out as a screenplay PDF, Word, plain text, Fountain or Final Draft (.fdx). A Final Draft export can record where each shot begins, so if the file ever comes back to StoryTribe your exact shot breakdown returns with it.

Tag your characters, places and shots as you write

Type @ to tag a character, location or prop from your project, and # to point at a scene or shot. When a character speaks, their name links to your cast. Tags keep the script connected to the exact people, places and shots they mention.
