Because I'm already committed to using Scrivener but it's been a couple of years since I last used it (for my Masters of Fine Art), I'm working my way through this tutorial.
This time around I got to the bit where you actually write a script using the Screenwriting feature (where it creates a list of standard format options for you to pick) and I discovered that what was in the tutorial [a PAGE ($N)] wasn't on mine! Oops. Done something wrong along the way. However it reinforces the potential ease I saw in Scrivener for breakdowns. You write a general outline, then cut chunks of that over to "Index Cards", and then fill in the scenes that each Index Cards represents.
Sounds complicated but it isn't, and even though I screwed up doing the tutorial, I know I've got the right application for me, so "round two" after lunch!
