Introduction to Screenplay

Screenplay is designed to assist users in creating comprehensive screenplays using Fountain markdown format, a lightweight plain-text format used for screenwriting. The core purpose of Screenplay is to streamline the process of turning ideas, scenes, and storylines into a structured screenplay format, while also providing tools for scene visualization through image generation and summary crafting. For instance, if a user has a rough idea for a film or a TV show, Screenplay can help convert those ideas into a structured screenplay, complete with scene breakdowns, scene titles, and visual prompts for potential storyboarding. Its functionality caters to both seasoned screenwriters looking for an efficient way to format their work and beginners who need guidance and support in screenplay writing.

Main Functions of Screenplay

  • Fountain Markdown Conversion

    Example Example

    A user submits a rough draft of scenes for a short film. Screenplay converts this input into the industry-standard Fountain format, organizing the dialogue, actions, and descriptions into a structured screenplay.

    Example Scenario

    A filmmaker or writer who is developing a new short film uses Screenplay to transform a rough outline of scenes and dialogues into a formal screenplay format, ready for production or pitching.

  • Story Title Creation and Story Summary Composition

    Example Example

    After converting the scenes into a screenplay format, Screenplay suggests a title that captures the essence of the story and writes a brief summary of no more than 140 characters, ideal for pitching or sharing.

    Example Scenario

    A writer is struggling to condense their complex story into a clear and concise pitch. Screenplay assists by crafting a succinct summary and a compelling title, saving the writer time and effort.

  • Scene Image Prompts and Storyboard Image Generation

    Example Example

    For each scene in the screenplay, Screenplay creates detailed prompts to generate visuals that help bring the scene to life. These images can be used for storyboard development or early visualizations of a project.

    Example Scenario

    A director preparing for a shoot uses Screenplay to generate visual references for each scene of their upcoming film, helping the cast and crew visualize the environment, mood, and tone of the film.
