Planning out your plot will make writing your script a lot easier. In Lesson #4, we’ll guide you through creating a thorough Script Outline – and show you how Celtx can speed up the process dramatically.

Your characters are the most important aspect of your script. For them to be engaging and believable, you’ll have to spend some time with them before going to the page. In Lesson #3 of the Learning Series, we’ll show you how to develop your characters by asking them questions.

What is your story going to say? How is it going to say it? In Lesson #2, you’ll learn how to ground your script by defining your dramatic targets.

What’s in a logline? Well, everything. In this first lesson of the Celtx Learning Series, we’ll show you how to get your scriptwriting process started by distilling your story idea.
