The SoCreate Weekly Museletter
You Can Now SEE Your SoCreate Story; Launch Party Pictures Are Here; This Month in Filmmaking History
Hey SoCreators,
There’s a big change on the horizon, and we’re not talking about the season! Soon, for the first time in history, screenwriters are going to have a place to publish their stories with visuals – no middlemen, no barriers, no fancy equipment – and have a direct line to their readers.
This week, we’ve launched the first part of this exciting new chapter, called the Storyteller Preview Feature. Read all about it below!
Get a Sneak Peek at Your Story with the Storyteller Preview Feature
SoCreate’s full vertical empowers storytellers to create, produce, and (coming soon!) publish your stories to the world. But before you publish, you can now use our new Storyteller Preview Feature to see exactly how your story will look to readers, including how the imagery pairs and progresses with your text.
The Storyteller Preview Feature is a standalone feature that lets you view your story's final presentation directly from SoCreate Writer. Simply click the Sharing Icon in your main toolbar, then select "Preview in Storyteller" to see a visual version of your work as it will appear in SoCreate’s library of stories.
That’s right: Soon, you’ll be able to share a visually immersive version of your screenplay with the world! Use the Storyteller Preview Tool to refine your story before it goes live for the world to see.
SoCreate Storyteller is set to revolutionize screenwriting, and with the Storyteller Preview Feature, you can get a head start on preparing your stories for launch in just a few short weeks.
Want to be sure you’re ready to publish when Storyteller becomes available later this month? Join us for a complimentary webinar with SoCreate Founder and CEO Justin Couto.

Recap: SoCreate’s Official Launch Party
Last week, we celebrated the official launch of SoCreate’s complete vertical, including the groundbreaking SoCreate Storyteller platform, at our San Luis Obispo headquarters. The evening was unforgettable, as we welcomed storytellers from near and far to experience our creative space for the first time.
Our headquarters, featuring stunning floor-to-ceiling, photo-realistic murals, set the stage for an inspiring night. Guests enjoyed a live demo of SoCreate Storyteller by our founder, Justin Couto, and explored the revolutionary features that will soon empower them to share their stories with the world. Storyteller will officially launch at the end of September.
The event caught the attention of local media. The San Luis Obispo Tribune highlighted the artistic and innovative spirit of SoCreate—read the full coverage here. KSBY News also captured the excitement—check out their coverage here.
Thank you to everyone who joined us. We’re excited to continue this journey with you as we revolutionize the way stories are told and shared!

This week, we’re diving into a hilarious adventure from a dog’s point of view.
Location: Inside (INT) – Small Apartment Living Room
Characters: Max (the dog), Chloe (30, Max’s owner)
Set the Scene: Max, a clever but slightly mischievous dog, is lounging in the small, cozy apartment he shares with his owner, Chloe. Chloe has just left for work, and Max is ready to embark on his usual routine of “guarding” the apartment—a job he takes very seriously, even if his methods are a bit unconventional.
Prompt: Today, Max senses something unusual—a strange noise coming from the kitchen. Convinced that an intruder (perhaps a sneaky squirrel or, worse, the vacuum cleaner) is trying to infiltrate his territory, Max springs into action. Write a scene that captures Max’s valiant (and comical) attempts to protect the apartment, all while trying to avoid getting into trouble himself. Leave the scene on a cliffhanger that makes the reader wonder what Max will do next.
That's it for this week's Museletter! We hope it inspired you to write. Your stories are important, and every sentence you add brings you one step closer to a finished story you can share with the world!
