How it works

Six steps from brief to call sheet

  1. 1

    Create a project with a client and scope, add spots

  2. 2

    Break down the script into scenes with clear fields for action, dialogue, props, wardrobe, locations, and VFX

  3. 3

    Build the shotlist with type, angle, movement, lens, and equipment

  4. 4

    Schedule the day with blocks, company moves, and department tasks

  5. 5

    Book talent once, assign them to days and spots, attach releases

  6. 6

    Publish the call sheet with client, crew, and internal views
