Frequently Asked Questions

Your questions, answered

Is using StudioBinder totally free?

Yes! StudioBinder is free to use. StudioBinder is and will forever be free to access and use whether you are on a Free, Teams, Education, or Enterprise account. However, there may be some additional features or content you get access to with paid subscriptions.

What is a call sheet in film?

A simple call sheet definition would be “a daily production document that relays all the details for the following day’s shoot to the cast and crew.”

What can I create with StudioBinder Call Sheets?

You can create call sheets for any project with StudioBinder. Everything from features, shorts, music videos, photo shoots, documentaries, commercials, etc. Whether your crew consists of 2 or 200, having a call sheet will ensure that everyone shows up at the right location, at the right time, and fully prepared.

What information is included on the free call sheet template?

Call sheet production in StudioBinder includes everything that a standard call sheet example does...and more. From the essentials like shoot day, call times, locations, and shooting schedule to more specific details like map links, attached files, department notes, and up-to-the-minute weather conditions. The film production call sheet is as robust and comprehensive as you like. Customize the layout and toggle entire sections on and off as needed. Variations can be sent to select individuals so perhaps the cast gets a simplified call sheet while the crew gets a more detailed version. It's all up to you.

Do I have to fill in the call sheet manually?

There will be some manual adjustments necessary but StudioBinder's call sheets are fully integrated with other features such as the shooting schedule, script breakdown, locations and contacts databases. That means that when you generate a call sheet, most of the details are pulled in automatically. This includes the shooting schedule, cast list, and locations.

Can I make a custom call sheet template?

Absolutely. Once you have it set to your liking, a custom template call sheet can easily be created. Now the same basic callsheet template can be used for each day of the project and on any future project, making the entire process smooth and efficient.

How are call sheets delivered in StudioBinder?

Call sheets are sent electronically via email and SMS text. This allows recipients to confirm from anywhere. Of course, if the need should arise, call sheet PDFs can also be generated and delivered manually.

Can I see who has received and confirmed my call sheets?

Yes, every call sheet is tracked and you can monitor its status from the call sheet dashboard. There you can see if the call sheet was sent successfully or was bounced back, if it was viewed or confirmed.
