What a screenplay page is
A screenplay page separates what is said from what is seen. Character names sit above their lines, action is written in plain present tense, and everything reads top to bottom. That layout makes a bit easy to hand to another performer.
From bit to page
Write your story and Shutap writes the bit. Switch to the screenplay view and the same material is laid out as a script page. Nothing is rewritten for the format, only arranged.
When it helps
Use the page when more than one person is in the video, when you want to mark timing and actions, or when you are pitching a sketch. It is also the easiest version to read aloud at a table read.
Edit before you shoot
Treat the page as a draft. Cut what you would not say, add what you would, and keep the lines that already sound like you.
