Video transcript

Bring your screenplay with you. Real Friends, in Cinevaris.

Start in a separate project. Keep the original. Import replaces this project's screenplay.

Review before applying. Check the scene count and conversion notes.

Replace the blank starter scene. This is a fresh project, so treat the import as a new screenplay.

Check the imported pages. Compare headings and dialogue with your original copy.

Take an editable copy with you. Fountain is a text screenplay format, not the whole project.

Open and check the export. Your original file stays untouched.

A production by you. cinevaris.com
