Useful output, not a score ## What this tool gives you ### A scene in screenplay format Scene headings, action, character names and dialogue on real screenplay pages, ready to print or open in Plot. ### Scenes, shorts, videos and ads Write one dramatic scene, a complete short film, a video script with a hook, or a 30-second commercial. ### A draft you can keep writing Open the script in Plot and rewrite it, continue it, or ask Plot's AI for the next scene. ## How to use it 1. 1 ### Describe your idea Write a sentence or two: who wants something, where they are, and what stands in the way. 2. 2 ### Choose a format Pick a scene, a short film, a video or a commercial. Each one asks for a different shape and length. 3. 3 ### Write and keep going Write the script, read it as pages, then open it in Plot to rewrite it or write the next scene. ## How to read the result Treat the script as a first draft. The AI gives you a shape to react to: a place to start, lines to cut and a turn you might keep. The scene gets better when you rewrite it in your own voice, and Plot keeps it in screenplay format while you do. ## Questions writers ask ### How does the AI script generator work? You describe a premise and choose a format. Plot's AI writes the script in screenplay format, and the page lays it out as screenplay pages. You can copy it, download it as a Fountain file or open it in Plot to keep writing. ### Is the AI script generator free? Yes, and you do not need an account. If you write many scripts in a row, the page asks you to wait a few minutes. Plot's free plan includes the full editor and a monthly AI allotment for the next draft. ### How long is the script? A scene runs one to three pages and a short film two to three. A video script is one to two pages and a commercial is under a page. Write another version, or open it in Plot to make it longer. ### Can it write a script in other languages? Yes. It writes in the language of the page you are on: English, German, Spanish, French, Japanese or Korean. Switch the site's language to write in another one. ## Defined in the glossary - [Scene Heading (Slugline)](https://www.inkwell.software/glossary/scene-heading) [A scene heading, or slugline, is the line in capitals that opens each scene in a screenplay.
