Story Department is a revolutionary screenplay translation engine designed specifically for screenwriters and directors who need accurate, high-fidelity translations of their scripts. Unlike traditional translation tools that merely convert words, Story Department preserves the dramatic intent, voice, rhythm, subtext, and pacing of the original screenplay. It is built on advanced research in literary and screenplay translation, ensuring that the translated script remains production-ready and faithful to the original creative vision.
The product was developed by screenwriters and directors who faced the limitations of expensive professional translation services or unreliable AI tools. With Story Department, users can translate full-length feature scripts in just 15 minutes, while maintaining structure, dialogue, and formatting. The platform allows users to lock terminology, review key decisions, and export clean FDX files without any data retention or model training on their content.
Story Department follows a streamlined workflow to ensure accuracy and efficiency:
Upload Your Screenplay – Drop in your FDX file. The system reads the structure, character cues, and formatting exactly as Final Draft intended. No copying, no reformatting, no cleanup later.
Set the Tone – Add glossary rules or make small calibration edits. Lock names, terminology, and creative decisions before translation runs. You stay in control of voice and intent.
Review What Matters – We translate the full screenplay while protecting rhythm, subtext, and pacing. You can fine-tune key lines without breaking structure. Your choices apply consistently across the script.
Download a Production Ready FDX – Export your fully translated screenplay in the original FDX format. Formatting intact. Dialogue preserved. Ready to open, share, or send to partners.
