Applies to: Final Draft 13 / 12 / 11
Yes. First, make sure that the scenes in your script all start with a Scene Heading and that you have added scene numbers to your script.
To add Scene Numbers: Go to Production > Scene Numbers check Number / Renumber, select Scene Heading for the Element, then click OK. Make sure you save the file after doing this.
Next, the Final Draft script must be converted to a .sex file: Go to File > Export > Script / Document and choose the Movie Magic (.sex) format.
Close Final Draft.
Then:
- Open Movie Magic Scheduling;
- Go to File > New Schedule from Template;
- Choose the default template;
- Go to File > Import;
- Navigate to the .sex file you exported from Final Draft and double-click to import it;
- Go to Schedule > Boneyard;
- Select All with Command + A (Mac) or Control + A (Windows);
- Right-click or Control + click (Mac) and choose Move to Stripboard;
- Close this empty window and you should see all fields populated.
Should you encounter issues importing into MMS after the script has been exported as a .sex file, you may want to contact their technical support service for assistance. Our ability to help you with that program is extremely limited.
Final Draft 10 and older cannot export to MMS.
