What is Movie Outline?
Movie Outline is an innovative Screenplay Outlining Application for both the Amateur and Professional Screenwriter, allowing for simple planning from scene to scene with flexible reorganization of scene order and simultaneous reference to successful Movies of all genres.
By streamlining the creation process of each scene and the outline structure as a whole, Movie Outline gives the Screenwriter the space to think and view the full outline of their story while simultaneously working on individual scenes.
The unique Reference Outline facility gives the Screenwriter the added advantage of assessing their own structure and story pacing in comparison to successful movies in the same genre.
What do the Pros think?
"I've tried various other story planning software but none of them did the trick. Mainly because they weren't designed specifically for the screenwriting process and it felt as if they were constructed by mathematicians with over-complicated unuser-friendly interfaces that only added to the clutter of my mind. All I wanted was a simple way to plan my story structure and organize my creative thoughts. Movie Outline was the solution." Daniel Bronzite - Screenwriter / Director
About Reference Outline Plugins
Different genres of movies require different amounts of scenes. Dramas are typically around 35-40 scenes because they usually have longer scenes than Thrillers, Comedies and Action and Adventure movies which are normally around 45 scenes with more action and less dialogue.
To help plan out your project, Movie Outline allows you to simultaneously refer to produced feature film outline analyses and gauge the progress of your own story in contrast to some of the most successful Hollywood movies. So if you get stuck on scene 15 and wonder if your structure is working, simply select your movie Reference Outline and see what happens at the same time in this example.
By comparing your own character arcs, escalating conflicts, plot points and three act structure with the pros, you will be able to amend mistakes in your own pacing and successfully produce a well-structured screen story!
