How to Use the Script Editor

Write, format, import, assign, comment on, and manage a Script from its editor and sidebar.

The Script editor is a focused writing space for turning an outline into a production-ready video document. The document stays in the center; fields, feedback, and history live together in the sidebar.

Write and structure the Script

Click into the document and write normally. Use headings for major beats, paragraphs for narration, lists for shots or examples, and comments for review notes.

Format content

The formatting toolbar includes undo and redo, text styles, headings, emphasis, blockquotes, code blocks, links, images, lists, alignment, and fullscreen writing mode.

Import and export

Open File to import HTML, Markdown, text, or Word documents, or pull writing from Google Drive and Dropbox. Export when you need a copy outside Bluprint.

Use the Script sidebar

Open or close the sidebar from the button in the editor header. It has three tabs:

  • Fields contains built-in Script fields, the linked Idea, and Script custom fields.
  • Comments contains inline review threads attached to document selections.
  • History contains Script snapshots that can be inspected or restored.

Assign teammates from Fields

Open the sidebar's Fields tab and use Assignees. Assign the writer, editor, producer, or reviewer who owns the next step. This replaces the former Assignees top-menu flow.

Base Script fields can be reordered or hidden for the Channel, and custom fields can be added for workflow details such as review owner, sponsor approval, or target runtime.

Comments and history

Use Comments for questions and edit requests tied to exact text. Use History when you need to inspect or restore an earlier document state.
