Mastering Celtx ReviewCeltx is an often misunderstood program mainly because it's free and many associate free with awful.
Truth be known it's a program that is nearly equivalent to expensive varieties such as Final Draft. Not only can you do screenplays but comic book layouts, scene designs and even use the program as a note taker if you desire.
This book is nearly 340 pages of concise and step-by-step tutorials on how to use this program and not get lost. I also found it refreshing that it points readers to other sources just in case this book doesn't cover a topic. I also like the fact that it's full of illustrations to show what the author is discussing. Many books of this style assume the reader has a working knowledge of a program and then dive off into some hinterland from which no one returns.
One recommendation I would make is to redesign the book as a spiral bound edition. Several times I had to put the book down to review progress on my computer and then got interrupted or lost my train of thought at which point I had to pick the book back up. Spiral binding would solve that problem (hopefully).
Of note, Amazon has two hardbound versions of this book and both are identical but the one posted with the author's name is cheaper than the one with the publisher's name in the title. Someone made a little goof there.
If you're new to Celtx or are just interested I'd definitely recommend this book. So, why the drop in a star? Mainly for what appears to be filler in the beginning to fluff out the page count. A history of computers really sticks out as misplaced in a book discussing one specific program.Mastering Celtx OverviewUntil recently, available screenwriting tools--built around traditional discrete roles and tethered to paper output--have struggled to keep up with the rapid changes in industry practices and needs. However, a new tool called Celtx (pronounced kel-tx) has embraced the industry's evolution and created a preproduction workspace that erases the boundaries between different conceptualizing and narrative-building tasks, such as storyboarding, outlining, media asset management, and scriptwriting. This book is for small-shop media professionals, independent film and video makers, media arts professors and students, ad-hoc media production teams, "pro-am" media creators, and aspiring screenwriters, storyboard artists, or comic book creators who want to maximize their creativity using Celtx. You will be introduced to the essential Celtx toolset (as well as to the Celtx Script app, Celtx Studio, and Celtx add-ons) and will learn how to apply Celtx to a variety of projects and workflows. A companion website includes downloadable practice files and images so you can work through the book's many tutorials. This is the only book you need to master Celtx and take your screenwriting and storyboarding projects to the next level.
