So, are we going to make a movie?

I think very few people sitting in a dark cinema hall, did not plot their own film histories.

In each of us sits the inventor and dreamer.
The dream factory attracts with the beauty of its myths, in which every viewer (even the one who hardly fits in the wide armchair of the cinema) can at least mentally visit the skin of a handsome superhero.
Of course, any fool can become rich in himself and not out loud. And how about sharing dumkami with your neighbor ... And maybe with your distant?
I have long been looking at the programs for writing film scripts. Just because it's interesting. And there are more than a dozen of them in the world. A common feature - they cost a lot and exist mainly for Windows.
But we have heard about other systems!
So, recently I came across an interesting project called Celtx (Celtics).
The program is free (Open Source), except for Windows, it is easy to master Linux, it will be to her liking and MacOS.
In essence, this is a text editor for a writer-author of screenplays, theater plays, promotional scripts, creative texts or stories for comic books. Contains a complete set of necessary tools to work on the script and the individual characters in the story. Provides the ability to save the project as html or pdf.
This is all wonderful, but one thing seemed very, very interesting and unique to programs of this kind.
The authors of the project are not limited to creating just another program (even if it is free and multiplatform).
The authors of the project have created a whole community. Here anyone can create their own project, on which not one author, but the whole team can work. Projects can be exhibited for familiarization with the community and create groups of collaborators. From my point of view, the Celtics is a promising creative project that will allow many people to try their hand at screenwriting without focusing on the numerous script design rules.

Celtics provides a complete creative process:
- throw an idea
- edit individual scenes / parts
- we arrange parts in the form of convenient index cards
- we connect to the collaborators process
- we make the necessary base of materials (notes, audio, photo, sketches)
- we draw the project storyboard
- create a shooting plan of the project


So, you can download the program (the Russian version is also available) from the site of its creators.
www.celtx.com
The price of the question is seven meters (7Mb) of traffic.
Of the deficiencies noted, the lack of classification of projects according to languages, but the Celtics is young and, I am sure, will grow rapidly.
