I’ve been using Claude 3 as a junior writer to help me complete my screenplays much faster and with more control. I come up with the beginning, middle, and end paragraphs of a story and feed this to Claude to generate a four-page treatment, character descriptions, logline, and other screenplay essentials.
After some editing, I send the treatment back to Claude to generate a three-act outline with plot points. This is then edited and fed to Claude to generate detailed story beats. I then edit the story beats to clear up any mistakes and misunderstandings and have Clause generate the scenes for a complete 115-page formatted script from the story beats.
Although the premise can take weeks to refine, the rest of the process takes about 8 hours rather than four months. Once I have a script in Claude’s voice, I need to polish it into a final draft script in my voice which can take several weeks.
My point is that AI is a game-changing productivity tool for creative writers. I look forward to the day when I can drop my script in an AI tool like Sora and have it generate a feature movie from it without bothering Hollywood producers.
It was delicious... I think.
