Shot Designer

Shot Designer makes it ridiculously easy to block complex scenes, complete with Camera Diagram, Animation, Shot List, Storyboards, Director's Viewfinder, and Sync & Team Sharing. Neither Camera Diagrams, Shot Lists, Storyboards, or Animation by themselves give you a satisfying understanding of camera-blocking -- you have to use them together. Shot Designer gives you a superior understanding of your scene, and is the ultimate Director's creativity tool.

A Camera Diagram That Makes Itself: Shot Designer dramatically speeds up the Director's process of making camera diagrams. Shot Designer is FAST. The app knows how Directing works and does most of the work for you -- like automatically moving cameras when you move characters. Shot Designer is fast enough that you can use it with even with actors waiting!

A Shot List That Writes Itself: The integrated Shot List is tied into the diagram and writes itself while you work. Edit shots intuitively in the diagram, not in a spreadsheet. Everything in the app is connected. Any changes you make in the diagram update the shot list, and any changes you make in the shot list change the diagram.

Integrated Director's Viewfinder: Use the integrated Professional Director's Viewfinder as both a storyboard replacement, and the ultimate location-scouting tool for Directors. Build your scene blocking and try out scenes while you're on location! The Director's Viewfinder supports all major camera formats, so you get a perfect record of the exact lens used for a shot.

Other Features: Integrated Set Designer for building floor plans. Integrated Lighting Designer for DPs, with lighting symbols. Import production drawings as backgrounds and block on top of them. Factory Templates of pre-made camera setups for any situation. Make your own templates as starting points for new scenes. Large and growing prop/furniture library. Email us requests, we'll build them.
