#screenwriters:

Is there a MacOS app you like for index cards/cork board?

@dejackson I also ask this question from time to time but the answer is usually that a lot of folks (myself included) still end up putting pen to paper for this stage.
@kbenwrites It's possibly the single thing I miss about #celtx
@dejackson Yes! I feel like that’s the experience I’m chasing when I poke around for a digital version.
@dejackson unfortunately not an OS app but Trello has come in very handy for this kind of thing for me in the past.
@victoriadecapua Thanks for the tip; I just installed it! #macos12.6 #trello
@dejackson no worries! I personally really like the filtering functions. You can bookmark a filter view (say you label some "priority" and "act 2") so that your cards labelled with those labels will show. There's a lot of functionality.
@victoriadecapua That sounds interesting! I’d like to be able to isolate a subplot or secondary character arc so am playing with those filters now. Thanks for the tip!
@victoriadecapua Notably, most of my tinkering so far has been on my phone. Having access from different devices is appealing.
@dejackson I tried a few apps but have defaulted to Google Slides. It’s simple and will do whatever I want. Use a big font and view in slideshow to see multiple “cards”
@itsfullofstars Thanks for the suggestion; I tinkered with #slides a bit last night. Looks promising!
@dejackson Post-It Notes on a window works best for me. As long as you don't have a view to miss.
