Hello I have a unique problem. You see I'm talented at 3d blender animation, I can make my own mini stories alone without writing any script just purely using my mind. However I want to be bigger, so I hired some 5 devs that I already paid and share my stories to my co devs through writing. So I am slowly starting to become a writer than an animator. So instead of using Microsoft Word I tried Scrivener, It looks good in the trailer in Youtube, there is a left panel where I can organize what script there is in each episode. However this post in their forums describe my exact problem: https://forum.literatureandlatte.com/t/page-layouts-or-lack-of-why/29350/3 Tldr, scrivener is a writing program not a layout program, it is made for 300+ paged novels, not for animators who wants to use a small script per episode so the animators can do the work. You cannot change the margin size so everything is wide, and I am not sure If I can share my work to my co devs online. Learning from this video: The directors of the good, the bad, and the ugly, did not need any writers , all of the script was going through the director's head (like me) and he just have to explain through the actors and camera men what to do exactly, and they made a legendary film. Same story for studio Ghibli's Spirited Away. They used silence to depict tension, I have the same style as these people since at heart I am an animator(Action speaks louder than words) and a program like Scrivener that is catered towards novelists. What I really need is a program where I can organize my script with a left panel that is organizing the script for each episode yet offer margin layout changes like Microsoft Word, I already wasted my money on Scrivener and I am afraid and tired of doing research to other programs, I am already tattered with a 3d program's learning curve, I need your help guys.
Don't know if this will be helpful, but you have tried Notion.so? There's a lot of templates out there, so you might be able to find something fitting your needs, and the left panel is draggable up to a certain point, (but not that far, I'm afraid). I think there's even a storyboard template so you can insert animation stills and whatnot. The solo account is free, but the team account costs money, so you can just mess with the solo stuff, see if it's the right fit for you, and then buy a team account to share with your development squad. Hope this helps?
You might find what you need with yWriter. It's a creative writing app that helps you organize everything in your story.
