Free TV and film production software

February 28, 2006

Starting with the story and breaking down the elements, building a schedule and sharing the reports, Celtx is an incredibly thorough tool for TV and video (or film, or theater). It’s cross platform and totally free. One of the interesting features involves a built-in web browser, enabling some great collaboration opportunities. For instance, you can update multimedia assets (like photos) in realtime, so everyone has the same pic of the location for tomorrow’s shoot. In fact, Celtx is built on Mozilla’s Application Framework. I had been stressing templates for Word to do a little proper screenwriting, but Celtx does a great job, reminding me of my long-lost OS 9 copy of Final Draft. But Celtx is like much of the Movie Magic line rolled into one web-aware, cross platform nugget. Did I mention it’s open source too?
