Single-pane production management for indie filmmakers
Script, storyboard, budget, schedule, cast and post — connected. Change one thing and everything downstream updates itself.
The cross-module data layer
This is the part no other tool does. Move a single scene and watch four departments re-reconcile themselves — in real time, with no copy-paste.
Drag a strip on the board. That's the whole action.
Call sheet, Day 6
Rewritten with new call times. 5:42a tide added.
Budget, top sheet
Day 6 re-totaled. −$730 on the combined location move.
Cast availability
Maya cleared for Day 6. No conflicts flagged.
Camera reservation
Package moved to Day 6. 24mm + 85mm held.
Nine modules, one project
Most tools give you nine separate apps that never talk. ProductionAssistant gives you one — where your shot list knows the budget and your schedule knows the cast.
Why it's different
Reschedule a scene and the call sheet, the day's budget, cast availability, and equipment reservations all follow — instantly. No more reconciling nine spreadsheets by hand.
Storyboard frames and shot lists that draw straight from the script — and feed the day's setup count.
Linked to Script + ScheduleLive spend that moves with the schedule. Every dollar traces back to a scene.
The source of truth. Scenes, characters, and pages link everywhere else.
Feeds all 8 modulesDrag a strip; the call sheet rewrites itself and pings the right people.
Drives Budget + CastAddresses, permits, and maps wired to the days that shoot there.
On the call sheetAvailability, rates, and gear reservations that the schedule checks before you double-book a person or a lens.
Guards the ScheduleCarry every reel from edit to final hand-off, with a deliverables checklist that knows what's owed and to whom.
Closes the loopSchedule & Call Sheets
Lay out the board once. The moment a day is set, the call sheet is already written — call times, cast, locations, weather, and the next-day preview, all pulled from the modules that own them.
Budget & Funding
Stop maintaining "Budget_v7_FINAL_final.xlsx." Every line is wired to the days, people, and gear that spend it — so the top sheet is right the second you move a strip.
Visual Planning
Sketch the scene, and your shots become a real list — sizes, lenses, and movement that the schedule counts as setups and the equipment module reserves as gear.
From blank page to call sheet
Three steps from the script on your desktop to a call sheet in your crew's inbox.
Drop in a PDF or start fresh. Scenes, characters, and page counts parse automatically — that becomes the spine everything else hangs off.
Set the budget, slot in cast and locations, draw the shot list. Each module quietly fills in the ones it touches, so nothing's entered twice.
Produce call sheets, track spend on the day, and walk the same project all the way to post and final deliverables.
From the people on set
"Cut my pre-pro paperwork from a weekend to an evening.The schedule and budget finally live in the same place — I stopped re-typing everything four times."
"On an 18-day shootI redid the board three times. Every time, the call sheets and the day's budget were just correct— I never opened a spreadsheet. That used to be a full pre-call hour, every night."
"I report to investors monthly. Before, reconciling the schedule against the spend took a day and a half. Now the top sheet is always current — I export it and I'm done. It paid for itself in the first week of prep."
