Intuitive Breakdown Software

Breakdowns for modern productions

StudioBinder’s script breakdown software was designed with AD’s in mind and it goes beyond the traditional to embrace the modern. Tag and categorize elements with a click, manually add anything not on the page, and run reports that will ensure nothing has been left unaccounted for.

Import With Ease

Import any script file

Whether you’re writing directly in StudioBinder or importing an existing PDF, Final Draft, Fountain, or TXT file, your script breakdown process begins now.

Select-and-Tag Elements

Tag elements quickly and efficiently

Breaking down a script has never been more efficient. Import your screenplay and then select-and-tag elements with a clean, easy drop down menu.

Every element is highlighted in industry-standard script breakdown colors with customizable categories and script elements.

Versioning

Script changes stay in sync

Any script changes can be made directly from the breakdown while retaining your progress. And if you need to go back, all versions are archived and can be restored in a snap.

Report Center

Generate reports and lists

With your breakdown complete, you can generate a full range of reports including a breakdown summary, element list, DOOD reports and shooting schedules — all filtered by scene, element, cast, or location. All of this information is at your fingertips.

Easy Sharing

Share your breakdown

StudioBinder is built on collaboration. Share a “view-only” version of your script breakdown with anyone or invite collaborators to the project. Get feedback in the comments and assign tasks to the team.
