Given its industry standard position, however, Final Draft doesn't update as frequently as many would like.Ĭheck out some videos showing off the new version (there are Windows versions of these videos as well here): I appreciate that screenwriters now have many screenwriting software alternatives ranging from free to not that expensive, which means Final Draft needs to improve its product continually to keep it relevant. Final Draft also became the industry standard over all those years, so sticking with it made sense.
I've mentioned this before, but I write with Final Draft, not because I love the software, but because it was the only screenwriting software available back in the day when I started to write screenplays. With this new release, you can now save over 30% off the list price on Final Draft 9 at The Writers Store until Jan. Many of these new features are welcome additions to Final Draft, but some new features will look familiar to screenwriters who have sought out alternatives to accomplish certain screenwriting tasks. Now that Final Draft Writer for iPad has been available for quite some time, Final Draft 9 for Mac and Windows has arrived with a new look and new features. Despite its position as the top-selling screenwriting software, Final Draft seems to be playing catch up in certain areas. It is relatively short money compared to Final Draft et al and I think quite competitive.Several screenwriting software alternatives have arrived on the market in recent years to challenge Final Draft as the industry standard - or simply to improve upon its shortcomings.
If your budget will allow, I recommend Fade In. I have printed four pages as a test script to see the results to ensure the results are correctly formatted and I was very happy to see the format was spot-on for all formatted processes, for which my test script had all that would be required under normal writing circumstances. Using it is quite simple and takes very little time getting familiar with the keys for Scene Heading, Action, Character, Transition etc. I was given instant support by their downloading the program to include updates having only to use my code key. I bought another laptop (an awful expense) and contacted Fade In support. I ruined my laptop a couple months ago and had Fade in on it along with a script draft. My first attempt was to use Celtx which was a nightmare with problems too varied to explain here. I am very happy using Fade-In as a second attempt at using screenwriting software.
