Overview
When you watch a TV show, a film or a play, it’s hard to see the structure that goes into each one. But it’s there. And, it’s pretty specific. It’s one thing having the idea – it’s something else getting that idea into the format needed to get noticed. That’s where Montage for Mac comes in.

Screenwriting is a creative process but it’s not a free-for-all. It requires a specific type of formatting – from typestyle to line spacing and indentations. You can have a blockbuster idea but without the proper screenwriting format, it won’t get read. Montage, a screenwriting product developed exclusively for the Mac, contains everything you’ll need to create the right format so that your script won’t be another addition to the circular file.
Let’s face it, Final Draft screenwriting software has been the industry leader for many years. For some users, a transition to a new screenwriting tool would be both challenging and intimidating. The app includes a built-in Final Draft importer which allows you to drag and drop your Final Draft documents (fdr format only) right on Montage for macOS and have them open in the app format. What’s that? You say you have a writing partner who needs to work in Final Draft (for some bizarre reason!)… it can help there too. Have the ease of creating your work in the app ’s intuitive and elegant interface AND the convenience of saving your Montage script as a Final Draft file format (.fdr).
The tool is designed to automatically structure your writing – you don’t have to worry about learning a complicated process. We’ve even included templates for almost every genre: TV, film, theatre, musical, comic book and more – just take your pick and the tool will do the rest.
Looking at your work from different perspectives, like any other type of art, is a good thing. The app provides multiple views such as the Script View, so you can see what you’re writing page by page. The Outline View lays out your script scene by scene and allows you to organize your script and even set its status.
A Full Screen Mode is a feature to keep you free from background images, e-mail and all the other stuff on your computer’s desktop. A clutter free desk will set the stage for focused writing and productivity.
Writing a query, constructing a synopsis and sending your script, Mont age for Mac assists with that too so you’re not left with a nicely formatted screenplay but nothing else. With the hundreds of included industry contacts through the integration with Apple’s Address Book – all you’ll need is determination.
Note: 30 days trial version.
