Fade In
Fade In is screenwriting software for motion pictures, television, video games, stage, radio and other scripts. Its desktop application includes screenplay formatting, outlining, organization, navigation, autocomplete, image support, and tools for rewrites and revisions. It imports and exports Final Draft.fdx files and supports.docx,.rtf, Fountain, Scrivener, Celtx and StudioBinder formats. Production tools generate breakdowns and reports for scenes, cast and locations, with HTML or CSV export. Scripts use the XML-based Open Screenplay Format, intended to improve accessibility and compatibility. The desktop license is a one-time purchase and permits installation on the purchaser’s own Windows, Mac and Linux computers; updates are included at no charge. Optional Fade In Access adds cloud storage, backup, version history, online editing, collaboration, sharing and publishing through a browser on computers and mobile devices. The free desktop demo includes the full feature set but prompts for registration after 10 pages, watermarks printed scripts and excludes online real-time collaboration. Fade In Access does not paginate exactly like the desktop app, and page numbers are not displayed while editing in Access. Listed plans include Fade In Professional Screenwriting Software at $79.95 a month, Fade In Access Monthly at $9.95 a month, Fade In Student at $59.95, paid once, and Fade In Access Annual at $99.95 a year.
