Script Writing - Final Draft Vs. Celtx

Celtx is a media pre-production software, designed for creating and organizing screenplays, films, videos, stageplays, audio plays, documentaries, machinima, comics, games and podcasts.

The client-server application gives filmmakers an integrated and non-linear approach to the pre-production work phase, providing support for industry standard scriptwriting, story development, storyboarding, script breakdowns, production scheduling and reports. It also allows writers to attach images, videos and audio files to a project.

Final Draft is a screenwriting software for writing and formatting a screenplay to meet submission standards set by theater, television and film. The program is developed by Final Draft, Inc. It can also be used to write stageplays, outlines, treatments, query letters, novels, graphic novels, manuscripts, and basic text documents.
The current version, contains over 50 movie and television templates, and also allows users to assign computer generated voices to their characters, who read aloud. Other features include CollaboWriter, which allows multiple users to collaborate on scripts n real-time via the Internet. Final Draft AV is a similar program which is designed for writing television videos, reality television, news, commercials, corporate and training videos, documentaries, and presentations.

According to Final Draft's website, co-founder and current CEO Marc Madnick developed the software in 1991 to help aspiring screenwriters because he found that studios' rigid formatting regulations made screenwriting difficult.
