Celtx is easily one of my favorite programs. The tool that are available are great. All my projects are on it and it is one of the staples of my production process. And best of all, to date, it is entirely free. There are still a few functions that we users are clamouring for, (like budgeting and production boards) but the Celtx team is working on that too.

"Celtx is the world's first fully integrated solution for media pre-production and collaboration. It replaces old fashioned 'paper, pen & binder' media creation with a digital approach to writing and organizing that's more complete, simpler to work with, and easier to share."


Celtx is a one of a kind software, designed to aid in several aspects of pre-production.

--- 5 dedicated industry standard editors for writing- operates in the same fashion as any other industry standard script writing software. If you can use Final Draft you'll feel right at home.---

--- Scheduling- Fairly basic calender---

--- Storyboards- more of a storyboard projector. This feature doesn't create the images for you. However, once you upload them, you can rearrange and play them back, almost like an animatic.---

--- Script Break Down and Tagging function- for highlighting the various elements needed for your project ( i.e: props lists, cast list and contacts, F/X lists, Locations)---

--- Collaboration - Celtx allows to you publish your project (publicly of privately) on their secure server. Those you grant access can download and update the project. Notifications are left ion your inbox whenever a change has been made.---

-- Create a home base- everything , script, notes, cast info, reference material, can all be stored in one place, where it be to share with your team or save as a backup---
