Greenlight’s Proofreading feature ensures that your screenplay is polished, professional and ready to impress industry insiders. No more wasting time scouring through your scripts! We help get your story to the level it needs to be and error-free.
What is Proofread?
Proofread is more than just a spell-checker; it’s a comprehensive tool designed specifically for screenwriters. It meticulously scans your script for errors and offers clear, easy-to-follow suggestions for corrections. Here’s what it brings to your scriptwriting toolkit:
- Dynamic Error Correction: Proofread detects and highlights typographical errors, missing words, and incorrect punctuation, providing immediate suggestions for corrections.
- Grammar and Punctuation Fixes: It adjusts complex grammatical issues and ensures that punctuation is used correctly to maintain the rhythm and flow of your dialogue and descriptions.
- Homonym Clarification: Easily confused words (like ‘its’ and ‘it’s’) are flagged with suggestions for the correct usage, enhancing the readability of your script.
- Capitalization Consistency: Character names, locations, and other proper nouns are consistently capitalized, ensuring that your script adheres to industry formatting standards.
Why Use Proofread?
Every detail in your screenplay counts. Minor errors can detract from the reader’s experience, potentially impacting the saleability of your script. Proofread ensures that your screenplay is error-free, allowing the story and characters to take center stage without distraction. This tool doesn’t just correct; it teaches, helping you improve your screenwriting with each use.
