I’m very fickle with software, always looking for improvements! I keep hearing good things about Movie Magic Scriptwriter - they seem to wait until FD releases a new version, study its weaknesses and then release a new version of Movie Magic, hoping to attract disillusioned FD users. I use FD version 6 and I’m at the stage when I either upgrade to version 7 or try something new.
I'd be very interested to hear what you think of the latest Final Draft (version 7) when you’ve tried out the demo. I have used both Final Draft and Movie Magic Screenwriter before and MSS wins by a mile, however in the interests of fairness I will download the latest Final Draft demo and post back if I decide to eat humble pie :)Įither way I'm still looking forward to the upgrade. The inline script notes are a great help and it even has the silly stuff like that talking robots to read your script back to you.įrom what I've heard the "Final Draft industry standard" thing isn't as true as it used to be, and FD's support is infamous. The formatting is correct "out of the box" (as far as I know) and I've never had to touch any settings. It will even convert to final draft version 4 format (although I'm sure no one uses version 4 anymore). It formats everything for me and saves/exports in enough formats native, rtf, pdf, ASCII,and a ton of others. Updates have now moved this on to 4.7, but since then I've heard nothing about the next major version (I've no idea what happened to version 5). I've used MMS for what must be at least 5 years now after buying version 4.0. I don't know if this is old news to any of you but Movie Magic Screenwriter 6.0 is out next month.
