Chapter 6

cene View

Scenes are the main building blocks within scripts. A scene is
usually delimited by a scene heading element (aka: a slugline).
However sometimes a scene starts with a transition element.
Scenes in montage can even contain multiple sluglines.

When in Scene View, scenes are visually differentiated by being
displayed in their own “bubble” or “rounded note card.”

Scenes have a title and display the color corresponding to their
status. They have a status which can be used to create a Smart
View as well as an optional start and end date.

During production phases, scenes can be numbered, omitted,
or revised.

Montage keeps track of which characters and location are in
which scenes so you can focus on the writing.
