Movie Magic Screenwriter

TopTenREVIEWS - Silver Award - Awarded for excellence in design, useability and feature set

Even though Final Draft is the Hollywood industry standard of screenwriting software, that doesn't mean Movie Magic Screenwriter is substandard. In fact, it's the official screenwriting software of the Writers Guild of America East (WGA) and other film organizations. This screenwriting software even won a prestigious Academy Technical Achievement Award. Its user interface isn’t intrusive, and there are many tools to help write and edit a screenplay. Movie Magic Screenwriter receives our TopTenREVIEWS Silver Award.

Ease of Use:

Much like Final Draft, once you start writing, the program will anticipate what you want to do next. This includes selecting a scene heading (such as INT. HOUSE – MORNING, meaning inside of a house in the morning), action, the characters in a scene and the dialogue. While you write, you’ll mostly use the Enter and Tab keys, which bring up the formatting options.

There are also many tools that can be used in the screenwriting software itself, and Movie Magic Screenwriter also includes enough documentation and examples to benefit even the novice scriptwriter so they can easily get started on their screenplay with this screenwriting software.

The application can also import scripts written in Microsoft Word, PDF and rich text formats without too many fixes to get the formatting right – though it doesn't support Final Draft documents. We think the Text-to-Speech feature could prove useful so you can listen as your computer performs the script for you; you'll catch things you wouldn't from just reading your own script.

Movie Magic Screenwriter can create production tracking and breakdown reports for the various crew members to use with scheduling, budgeting and more. These are important features that should be in a great screenwriting software application.
