Spotlight customer reviews: Customer Rating: Summary: Great screenwriting program Comment: I've enjoyed learning more about screenwriting through this program. I'm going to seriously work on a couple of screenplays now. Customer Rating: Summary: Must have for writing scripts Comment: Great buy! I live in LA and was taking acting classes. I decided to try a writing class too and people in the class recommended using Final Draft. Really a great program. I've mentioned it to a few other people since and although it was not something I'd heard about previously, apparently it is the program that is used for all movies and scripted TV shows. Glad I picked it! Customer Rating: Summary: An Industry Must Have Comment: Another great release from the company that has become the standard for all things screenwriting. Quality and usability are the reasons why Final Draft is the name that industry professionals turn to for putting their creations on paper and their latest release is no different. Excellent features and very user-friendly. Thanks Final Draft! Customer Rating: Summary: Number One in My Book! Comment: I love this product! It does exactly what it says it does - makes writing a properly formatted script simple. Since I am familiar with other word processing programs, there was no learning curve at all. I simply installed it, launched it and started writing. I also found the index cards to be incredibly useful. For me, it is a great way to kickstart my writing. I highly recommend this program for anyone who wants to write scripts. Customer Rating: Summary: A valuable tool!! Comment: This arrived so quickly and I have not even begun to input my script with it, yet. I needed to replace it since my last script got burned up in my last computer when it overheated. I was HOPING I could retrieve that script, but haven't figured it out yet. The ONLY thing I don't like is the attachment and strictness on the licensing! I think I should be able to put it on all my computers, for my personal use, but I can understand the lock and limitations the creators have instilled in it. Good proprietorship. No, otherwise this is fantastic. A MUST for serious writers in this business, as well as ANY independant filmmakers.
