One of our most creative customers, Natalie Gray, is working on a insanely funny show called No Talent Required that she wrote with Montage. Check out the trailer on her site. It's great to see Montage finally getting some street cred in Hollywood! Good luck, Natalie!

Sometime today we will be releasing Contour 1.0. This app is a bit of a collaboration with our friend, Jeff Schechter, who developed an app called TotallyWrite and an Emmy Award-nominated screenwriter himself. Jeff's system of how to structure a screenplay using step-by-step instruction was one that really appealed to us. One of the biggest hurdles screenwriters have is either getting started or getting half way through a concept and figuring out what you have isn't exactly what you want.
That's where Contour steps in.
This is the same character-based structure that all the blockbuster movies use to create solid stories. Look down the Top 50 grossing movies of all time and the one consistent is the structure. They all follow a basic formula. Not only does Contour show you how to do it in your screenplay, it breaks down actual scripts (which is included in Contour). Contour basically shows you exactly what elements need to be in your script. Call it your own, personal writing coach!
Feel free to test drive a copy here and let us know what you think!
