Anyone use this? Am giving it a try after realising that my little laptop not up to running Final Draft
Initial impressions good but limited templates. Anyone found other templates? Settled on one they like?
any tips, I guess
Fade In Pro
What does this thread mean?
Yeah, can see how this could read like a surrealist forum bomb.
I'm talking about Fade-in pro, the screenwriting software.
You can probably build your own custom templates - so as long as you can get hold of the format you want to use you can just enter your own values.
What ones were you after in particular?
Looks quite good - and says it can export to Final Draft, so when some Hollywood hot-shot asks for your script you can wing it over!
Fade In is excellent - so user friendly - and syncing stuff from my phone to my Mac makes it really easy to work while commuting without having a bulky laptop on me. The guy replies to any queries insanely fast and he's always updating the software to reflect feedback too.
I used CeltX for ages but Fade In Pro is so much better for me.
Of course it's not free but it's so easy and so cheap.
I've found that I now instinctively know the shortcuts for formatting - can jump from dialog to action to transition without breaking stride. So, good if you ever find you're on a roll.
It's easy to navigate, creates decent PDFs and, as already mentioned, gets new features and fixes regularly.
