METHOD AND THE MEDIUM
The relationship between writers and technology has often been antagonistic
For filmscripts, Final Draft, now in its sixth release, is your only man. Many studios will now only accept scripts written with this program, which immediately formats your material into character, dialogue, action, shot, transition and so on. The peculiarities of script layout, with character's name centred over justified centred text, and the action range left, are very laborious to achieve using an ordinary word processing package.

THE DREAM WEAVING MACHINE
Screenwriting software helps aspiring and professional screenwriters write faster, clearer, and with more ease. But read the small print: it won’t make them better writers.
So you want to write a screenplay? Take a number. In a single year, some 10,000 feature film scripts are registered with the Writers Guild of America, West, a stunning figure when you consider that fewer than 500 films make it to the bug screen in the same period. While seminars, workshops, and Project Greenlight-style contests have helped feed the screenwriting mania, a large part of the craze can be directly attributed to screenplay formatting software.
