Scene View  Outline your script ideas and reorder scenes in this high level overview.
With the Scene View you can look at your script from a 5,000 foot view
and select, drag and drop one or more scenes to reorganize your ideas
as you outline. Insert new scenes easily, and hide or show information
important to you such as the scene’s action, title and summary. Scene
View also displays a scene’s color so you can quickly identify one
scene from another. Print your Scene View or just view it alongside
the script. With a double-click you can sync the script to instantly go
to any scene you’ve selected in Scene View. |

Scene Navigator
Manage and view the important details of your scene in this sortable floating palette.
Manage the pace and flow of your story and keep track of up to 9
categories of information related to your scenes. The Scene Navigator
is a sortable, customizable floating palette that displays details
about your script such as a scene’s title, color, page number, length
and location, and best of all it syncs with the script with a
single-click. As your script progresses, you can pick and choose the
columns of information that are relevant for that phase of writing. |

Scene Properties Inspector (SPI)
Add scene titles and colors to track your story lines, characters, etc.
Track data specific to each scene in this new floating palette such as
the scene’s story beats that will eventually make up the action,
characters and dialog of the scene. Add and edit your scene’s title
such as ‘Villain introduced’, and add color to the scene to help you
track elements like storylines, character arcs, and material you need
to get back to later. Like the Navigator, the SPI will display the
details of whatever scene you’re working on in your script so that you
have your summary notes handy as you need them. |

Index Cards   
Easily outline your story and restructure your script by dragging and dropping multiple scenes at a time.
This improved feature has double-sided cards that display the script’s
scene on one side and the summary on the other. The Summary View allows
you to enter ideas directly into the index card such as your basic
outline, notes, sequence or act markers, comments, locations,
blocking... anything you need to build and organize your story. You
can also color your Index Cards to help organize themes, character
arcs, A and B stories, etc. Select and rearrange multiple cards at
once if you need to reorder your scenes or print your Index Cards
directly on 3x5 or 4x6 cards for use in the ‘traditional’ way if you
want to visualize and organize scenes outside of the application.
Double-clicking on a card in Split Panel View will automatically sync
the scene selected with your script. |

Final Draft Tagger 2
Breakdown your script and prep it for scheduling applications
This updated stand-alone application reads any Final Draft script
and enables you to “tag” elements within the script [cast, costumes,
props, etc.] and export the results into most scheduling applications.
Tagger allows you to select text from the script and add any element
with a click of the mouse in any category for that scene – or for any
or all scenes where that element appears. The element text is
highlighted and color coded, and can be customized to suit the way you
like to work. Created with the help of veteran Assistant Directors,
Producers and Unit Production Managers, Tagger means no more going over
a paper script again and again with highlighters. |

Title Page, Cast Pages and Locations Pages
Cover pages come pre-formatted for industry standards
All of the Final Draft Television Templates come pre-set with easy-to-use information for each
series such as the specific cast list and typical sets/locations. Our
Standard One-Hour and Half-Hour Templates will also help you get
started on pilots by providing what information should appear in the
finished product. The added bonus is that the Title Page uses its own
numbering for tracking the following pages so it won’t add to your
overall page count. |
