1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:04,720 Once production begins, every change needs to be visible. Revision 2 00:00:04,720 --> 00:00:07,920 sets help the team follow the new draft. Open the 3 00:00:07,920 --> 00:00:12,200 “Revisions” tab in the sidebar and click “New Revision”. Enter 4 00:00:12,200 --> 00:00:16,740 a name (say “Blue draft”) and choose a colour. Federio 5 00:00:16,740 --> 00:00:21,400 Dramatize suggests the colours in the industry’s customary order: white, 6 00:00:21,400 --> 00:00:28,280 blue, pink, yellow, green, goldenrod, buff, salmon, cherry and so 7 00:00:28,280 --> 00:00:33,240 on. Production, then Revision Comparison shows which lines were changed 8 00:00:33,240 --> 00:00:35,820 in the current revision, in the context of the text 9 00:00:35,820 --> 00:00:40,580 before and after. Production, then Change Tracking is the continuous 10 00:00:40,580 --> 00:00:45,280 view of it (chapter 15). Production, then Revision Pages as 11 00:00:45,280 --> 00:00:49,180 PDF writes only the pages on which something changed, with 12 00:00:49,180 --> 00:00:52,800 their original page numbers. That is exactly what the production 13 00:00:52,800 --> 00:00:56,180 needs to print the coloured replacement pages. If the page 14 00:00:56,180 --> 00:01:00,000 count was not locked and has shifted, Federio Dramatize warns 15 00:01:00,000 --> 00:01:03,660 beforehand; you can then export anyway or lock the pages 16 00:01:03,660 --> 00:01:09,020 first. Production, then Finalize Current Revision ends the round. The 17 00:01:09,020 --> 00:01:12,560 asterisks remain and are frozen; the next revision gets a 18 00:01:12,560 --> 00:01:17,700 new colour and new asterisks. Production, then Accept All Revisions 19 00:01:17,700 --> 00:01:21,720 tidies up: all asterisks, colours and the revision history are 20 00:01:21,720 --> 00:01:25,460 removed, the text stays as it is now. Try these 21 00:01:25,460 --> 00:01:28,560 tools on a copy of your screenplay. Keep what helps 22 00:01:28,560 --> 00:01:31,040 your writing, and return to the guide whenever you need 23 00:01:31,040 --> 00:01:31,680 the details.
