are there any plans to integrate a feature which reads your dialogue back to you via your computer's sound system. You assign a gender to your character name, even different inflections, and you can have a staged reading of your script right there in your living room.

this would be excellent if it were to happen.

the benefits are numerous eg removes unconcious bias when reading, highlight errors which otherwise may have been overlooked etc etc

 

is this possible or even likely to happen?

A wish-list item

Hi Paul -

This has been on our wish-list for a long time, and I thought that it'd be a handy feature for both writers and actors.  For wrtiers, listening to their narration read can often help them find areas that don't sound natural when spoken.  And for actors, when they want to learn a part, how great would it be for the other parts in a the script to be spoken for them?

It's definitely on our wish list, but it's down the road quite a ways.

Regards, Randy
