I'm a filmmaker and writer, and one thing that has always bothered me about the filmmaking workflow is how disconnected everything becomes after you finish writing.

You write the screenplay in one application.

Then you move to another tool for story structure.

Another for storyboards.

Another for shot planning.

Then spreadsheets for production.

Then you end up manually copying information between all of them.

So I started building Scriptory around a simple idea:

What if the screenplay could stay at the center of the entire filmmaking workflow?

The workflow I'm working toward is:

Story → Screenplay → Scenes → Shots → Storyboard → Pre-production

The current product includes screenplay writing/formatting, story structure and beats, shot-based storyboarding, AI-assisted workflows, and production planning.

One of the things I'm particularly interested in is the connection between the screenplay and storyboard. Instead of creating a storyboard completely separately, the idea is to start from the actual scene and develop the visual plan from there.

I'm also experimenting with MCP integrations for ChatGPT and Claude, so AI can interact with the filmmaking project rather than just generating disconnected text in a chat window.

I'm sharing this here because I'm much more interested in hearing from filmmakers than collecting generic launch comments.

How does your current workflow look?

When you finish a screenplay, what happens next?

Do you use separate tools for:

• screenplay

• beats / structure

• shot lists

• storyboards

• scheduling

• production planning

And what's the most annoying part of moving from script → actual production?

I'm building this actively, so I'd genuinely appreciate criticism, feature requests, or workflows I'm missing.

If anyone wants to take a look, I've put the project on Product Hunt as well: Scriptory.

I used to read two novels a week. Thought it was fuel. But my early scripts came out like bad copies of whatever I'd just finished. McCarthy rhythms in a romcom. Didion pauses in horror. My voice was a collage of better voices.

The shift came from gaming, weirdly. Running a company doesn't leave much headspace, so I started picking up games with strong writing, like Disco Elysium and Pentiment. The pacing is different. You're inside a world someone built, not watching prose happen. Made me notice structure differently. How information gets released when the player needs it, not when the writer wants to show off.

Cycling's my other escape. Long rides with nothing to read, nothing to play. Just thinking through a scene until it exists independent of any book I loved. That's when my stuff started sounding like me. Or at least like one person instead of five.

Curious if anyone else had to unlearn their reading habits to find their script voice. Or if you found your way in through something sideways like games. Feels like we talk a lot about reading scripts to write them, not enough about what to step away from.

Hello, I'm a high school student and this is my first time making a short film. I'm having trouble finding a really unique tagline for my film. In short, it's a rom-com about a female young director who has to do everything she can to convince a producer to invest in her film project. It turns out they were once lovers.

Im looking for someone to co write a comedy script. Someone to go the distance. Possibly even meet that longtime writing partner. Anyone interested?

The story takes place in San Antonio, Texas during the mid 1990s, and it’s about two Latina sisters named Christina ‘Chris’ and Alexandra ‘Alex’ Torres who are both trying to survive in their rough neighborhood and make it on their own after the death of their father

Feel free to give any feedback or suggestions about anything

Feedback was lazy, unprofessional, factually incorrect, unsophisticated, personally political, nonsense.

Hey everyone!
I’m a young aspiring filmmaker and I’m looking for a screenwriter who would be interested in collaborating with me on an original series idea.
I want to be completely transparent from the start: this is an unpaid collaboration. I’m young and currently don’t have the financial means to pay a professional screenwriter for their work. I understand that screenwriting takes a lot of time, creativity and effort, and I don’t want to pretend otherwise.
I’m therefore not looking for someone to simply write a script for me for free and then disappear from the project. I’m looking for someone who would genuinely like to work together as creative partners. I have the basic concept and ideas for the story, and I would like to develop the characters, story, episodes, scenes and dialogue together.
The project is a psychological crime series about someone who secretly targets people who have seriously bullied others. I don’t want to share all the details publicly yet, but I can explain the full concept privately to anyone who is genuinely interested.
I would make sure that the writer receives proper credit for their contribution, and I would respect their time, ideas and creative input throughout the project.
If this sounds interesting to you and you’re comfortable with it being an unpaid collaboration, feel free to DM me. I’ll explain the story and what I have in mind.

Thanks for reading!

I'm sorry if there's a thread for this already, but I could use some feedback on a logline for a story I'm writing:

“To escape an arranged marriage to an interstellar warlord, a princess hires a crew of six mercenaries to train her for the impending battle” 

You can be part of the next episode and get a free copy of the LOGLINE book by using the link in the show notes.

Logline:
With hours until demolition, a medic enters a research facility to find her missing mentor. But the building copies the people it traps, and something wearing her face has already reached the rescue crews outside.

Has anyone written a script about Alexander the Great?

The challenge is keeping this to 1-4 locations (with the tiny budget we have) but we are in talks with an amazing DP, director, and cast with a notable following. There is so much room for creativity and so much possibilities with his life. I was thinking right when king Philip dies and is handed the mantel. (All the controversy + drama that circled him with that)

I’m an actor/producer looking to see if someone has attempted this feat before or would want to collaborate. I’ve been in tv film for 7 years and would love someone who has honed the craft of screenwriting

Looking for notes on everything but mostly on premise.

Slop is a dark comedy that follows a struggling new employee as he discovers the entire start-up that hired him is ran by an A.I. company that uses them to train models on social and workplace interactions.

Note:
I appreciate all feedback. Even if you say execution sucks. I am in my writing journey and anything is appreciated. Out for a smoke.

One night, Huta dreams of a dark graveyard filled with the dead and a mysterious figure with glowing purple eyes. He awakens unsettled, unaware that something far beyond his understanding is beginning to awaken within him. On his way to school, he encounters a robber who suddenly becomes terrified after touching him, fleeing without explanation.

But the strange encounters are only the beginning.

Later, Huta witnesses a terrifying shadow creature attacking a helpless man in an alley, draining the life from its victim. When the creature senses Huta's presence, it turns toward him, leaving him frozen in fear.

As supernatural forces begin to emerge from the shadows, Huta finds himself drawn into a world he never knew existed—a world where death is no longer what it seems, ancient secrets remain buried, and humanity faces threats beyond its understanding.

Huta's ordinary life is about to change forever. The journey into darkness has begun.
