Need some advice
I'm thinking about buying a script writing program. Looks like Movie Magic and Final Draft 7 are the best options. Does anyone have any insight?

Program for film or comics?
Quote:
If it's for comics, save your money and use Microsoft Word with specially tailored style sheets. You can build your own style sheets (which, done properly) will allow you to shift to the next style in the process by only hitting the RETURN key. It's really quite simple, and much better than trying to write comics with a film scripting program. --Lee |

If you're trying to get in to film and you don't have any money, give Celtx a try.
It is every bit as buggy and user-unfriendly as Final Draft but its free. |

Celtx is pretty sweet....I've written two short films with it......formatting got goofy though when I tried to bring it into MS Word.
