Plotagon lacks in more diverse features, as well, such as actual character movement from one spot to another and the ability to freely move the camera for better-angled shots. Unfortunately, the limited free choices may annoy some, especially since the paid version doesn’t give a fully-customizable option at all. Overall, Plotagon’s simple features guarantee that you can quickly make small videos of whatever you think of. Plotagon’s user community is also huge so you can connect with others easily, check out their own work, and give or get feedback from them. Plotagon allows you to upload your videos to YouTube and other social media networks. The most obvious reason for making videos is because you want others to see them, so of course, it’s a given that you can share your finished work with friends and strangers.

Other than voices, you’re also free to tweak the sound effects and music of your scenes. This would also highlight any talent with voice-acting. You can either use the default and synthetic text-to-speech voices or you can record and upload your own or others’ voice clips. Unless you plan on a silent film, Plotagon gives you the option to incorporate voices with your dialogue. Just like character creation, however, most have to be bought-but again, limitations breed creativity and there’s still a lot of options under other features. They’re divided into different genres, from school life to gritty crime scenarios, so you can be creative with how you’ll portray the setting using your script. Settings are important in movies, even simple clips, and so Plotagon allows you to choose where your scenes are going to take place. The sheer number of available animations for whatever emotion or movement you can do also supplements your writing and makes your video feel alive. It’s formatted just like a script and you won’t get so confused about what’s supposed to happen next or who’s supposed to talk after.

Plotagon features a scriptwriting tab, where you can input the actors’ positions, animations, emotions, and words. Most videos need dialogue and if your story needs people talking, there’s got to be words written for the actors to say.
