Watch Out Hollywood, Here I Come!
I have been writing short scripts since I was 11. I used Word to write them.

Now that I am in older, I am learning that following the traditional Hollywood script conventions make sense now that I am sending my work to scriptwriting contests, etc.

I got Final Draft because all my friends said it was 'what everybody used'. Normally, I would resist following this kind of advice, since I've always thought of myself as not being like everyone else & not following the crowd - but it was correct in this case.

Scripts are literally flowing out of me now.

Watch out Oscar, save one for me!

- I am in LOVE with this program!!
F Scott said it best - "...there are WRITERS & there are those of us who write." I write. And write. And write. I have no time. Actually, I don't have time 2 write this, but I am, because this program rocks! I used 2 use Word, have it all setup with my own template and all. Someone in Hllywd **strongly suggested** I get Final Draft, and I bought it here (because amazon has the best prices). I was reluctant 2 switch. Now in re-writes, I am a true believer in screenwriting software. Why didn't I get this years ago? Wow. If you WRITE (scripts) and don't have a copy of Final Draft, do yourself a favor and check it out before you waste another minute. Cheers!

- Great.
I have been researching several products for screenwriting. I am a beginner. I do not recommend Hollywood Screenwriter due to restrictions: must have cd in drive to use, incompatible with some cut/paste features, etc.

I read the for's and against's on here and other sites; it was terribly difficult to figure out what to purchase. I want the best for my money.

I did download both Movie Magic Screen Writer and Final Draft. For my work, I found that Movie Magic had too many values to work with in it's software. Although, I enjoyed the "windows" appearance and its reports, I found that the thesaurus was limited. The names list works well.

In Final Draft, it has an exceptional thesaurus, but it has a name list that works off of letters you enter vs. Movie Magic which provides a visible name list (a little easier to use).

Both seem to work almost identically in their format method. I did prefer the side bar in Movie Magic to enter or tab "dialouge," "transition," etc. Final Draft does do a find job of handling it and the "mores and continueds" work accordingly.

OVERALL, I came to the same conclusion that one rater has come to. You have to find which software works for you. They are both good.

I chose Final Draft and bought it from J&R Music because its interface is simple, it's easy on my eyes and the cost was relative. There's little clutter. I want to focus on my script and not the drop down with 9 or 10 items on it (yes, FD has one like that too).

To make either product out as a "bad" choice is silly. The developers of those products are math folks working to bring a screenwriting program for liberal arts folks into the market and make it functional.

That's a difficult chore, but I think they did a good job. My choice was Final Draft, because it's no nonsense, straight forward and functional.

Hopefully, some of these details helped you and best wishes getting your script out!

- Excellent Program
Read the negative feedback on this site, so I attempted to use Word (again) for all of my script formatting. It looked horrible, so I decided to give FD7 a try, regardless of the reviews. Typed the entire script, made revisions, tracked changes, made more revisions...
The program worked great, and the script looks better than anything I would have had the patience to create in Word.
Maybe they have fixed all of the initial problems (that I read about on this site), but I think it is an excellent program. I recommend it to anyone, who, like me, likes to write and hates worrying about where he/she has placed the "more" and "continued" on the page, or how the margin on my dialogue centers.

- A great Tool that's Easy to Use
I understand that there are a couple glitches with this software (what software package doesn't?)- and both times I had to get customer support from Final Draft, they were of immense help - patient and walked mr through the issues I had.

That being said, the Final Draft tools are straightforward, easy to use, and industry standard.

It's my favorite screenwriting software and I think the best out there.
