Story Architect (.starc) → CSV scene breakdown (.csv)

Pro Rescuing a script out of Story Architect (.starc) is the Pro part — from there it converts to CSV scene breakdown (.csv) and every other format on the site. The button below opens the converter with the output format already selected, and the server checks your plan when the file is dropped in.

Run this conversion

Convert Story Architect (.starc) → CSV scene breakdown (.csv)

Opens the homepage converter with CSV scene breakdown already selected as the output — drop your file, press Convert Script.

What survives this conversion

the full screenplay text with scene headings, action, dialogue, parentheticals, shots and transitions
act, sequence and beat structure wrappers
the project’s dictionaries and settings stay in the file (we convert the screenplay text)

What can be lost

export only (a derivative, not a script format)
mapping into a given scheduler’s importer may need column tweaks on their side

Every conversion includes an honest report listing anything that could not translate — you see it before downloading.

How this pair works

Your Story Architect file is parsed into a canonical screenplay model (by verified content, not just the file extension), then rendered as CSV scene breakdown. CSV scene breakdown background: CSV (comma-separated values, standardized as RFC 4180 in 2005) remains the lowest common denominator every scheduling tool imports; a scene breakdown CSV is the standard hand-off.
