Why we like it

Celtx earns its place in the Adobe Exchange library by bringing Celtx Studio screenplays directly into Premiere Pro and turning script data into scene bins and tagged media assets.

What is Celtx?

Celtx integrates access to the online Celtx Studio into Premiere Pro. The Studio acts as a repository for existing scripts and screenplays, with import options for .PDF, .FDX, .TXT, .DOC/DOCX, and .RTF files. Inside Premiere Pro, editors get one-touch access to individual or episodic screenplay content, with no adaptation or reformatting required.

Beyond viewing scripts, Celtx uses screenplay data to organize projects. It can generate bin structures comprising every scene in a screenplay with automatic labelling, and lets you tag project assets directly to screenplay content for rapid navigation and timeline/sequence generation. Imported scripts can be synced to include or ignore new edits made in the Celtx Studio without compromising existing editorial work.

The plugin is compatible with Premiere Pro 25.0 and later. Version 1.1.0 added an 'accept all' option when syncing imported scripts to new versions. It's listed here as free; check the developer's page for current licensing details.

Who is Celtx best for?

Celtx is best for premiere Pro editors working from screenplays who want script content and script-driven project organization inside the editing environment.

How much does Celtx cost?

How does Celtx handle screenplay edits made in the Celtx Studio?
