Production planning, shared

One file. Your whole crew in it.

The DOP is in the schedule while you're building it. The 1st AD watches the call time change as you type it. There's no old version to be on.

No card. 14 days. 2 seats.

Also in the file

The budget's in there too.

Start a budget and the film fund's own chart of accounts is already in it — every category, every line, ready to price. Or bring your own. It doesn't come from the shot list and never pretends to. It's the producer's document, sitting where the producer left it.

Export to PDF. Hide the lines you're not using without losing what's in them.

Everyone on the same page

One production file. Everyone works in it, and sees your change when you make it.

The producer

Budget, schedule and call sheets in one place, and nobody asking which version is the real one.

The DOP

In the schedule while it's being built, so the day matches the plan instead of arriving as a surprise.

The 1st AD

Drag shots into the day, watch the times cascade, and the call sheet's already written.

Viewers are free. Only the people who change things use a seat.

Who makes it

Built by a production company that still uses it.

PreShot came out of Blinds Creative's own shoots, and mostly out of small annoyances. A phone number on a PDF you can't tap. A schedule the DOP never got to look at until it was final.

When something breaks on set, it gets fixed the week after.

What came out of it

  • Shot list
  • Storyboard
  • Shooting schedule
  • Call sheet
