Breaking down a script is the process of capturing production elements required for a scene in a breakdown sheet. In Adobe® Story, elements such as location, character, and dialog are used to generate breakdown reports. The automated generation of reports helps reduce manual effort and minimize errors.
Breakdown reports exported from Adobe Story are in the comma-separated values (CSV) format. Use a spreadsheet application that supports CSV, such as Microsoft Excel, to open the CSV file.
You can generate customized reports for various members of the crew from the CSV file using the spreadsheet application. For example, a report containing actors, scene numbers, and dialogues required for a shot help production personnel plan effectively. Actors can be provided with a list of scenes that require their presence, and the dialogues for those scenes.
The following reports can be generated in Adobe Story.
