We Make Productions More Efficient

StudioBinder (spelled as one word) is a fundamentally new way for filmmakers, production companies, and agencies to streamline their production management workflow for the 21st century. We offer web-based filmmaking software with a suite of integrated products—from managing talent and crew details, creating shooting schedules, archiving documents & media in the cloud, to creating, sending, and tracking mobile-friendly call sheets.

This contrasts with the old methods of management where productions use a tangle of solutions, like spreadsheets, emails, CRM’s, and scheduling products, where every team member operates in a silo. This makes it hard for teams to get on the same page, resulting in a disjointed and oftentimes frustrating experience.

The Problem

Underpinning the success of all productions, large and small, is effective planning and communication. Yet most productions are a cobbled-together mess of spreadsheets, dumb data entry, redundant email chains, and software incompatibilities during import/export. Data is often entered manually into spreadsheets, day after day. As a result, it is not easy to monitor progress, or understand whether key documents were received by the talent & crew. This leads to stress, uncertainty, and demands a steady flow of repetitive follow-ups via email and text.

The Solution

We believe that an easy-to-use, one-stop solution to create, share and monitor critical production documentation is the key to solving the disjointed production workflow that is common today. At its core, StudioBinder provides a growing family of connected solutions:

  • Contact Management: Catalog cast & crew, and assign them to new projects.
  • Stripboard: Create multi-day shooting schedules with easy importing into call sheets.
  • Call Sheet Builder: Generate elegant call sheets that display perfectly on desktop and mobile devices. Select from multiple templates for every use case (shorts, features, photo shoots, etc.).
  • Call Sheet Monitoring: Monitor when call sheets are viewed and confirmed by cast and crew.
  • Cloud Storage: Backup production documents & media within your project.

NAME ORIGIN

The name “StudioBinder” derives from “Wrap Binder,” a traditionally 3-ring binder that contains, by the time a production wraps, every piece of paperwork for that project; call sheets, shooting schedules, cast/crew lists, creative materials, receipts, release forms, etc. Our mission is to provide the production unit with a holistic workflow that acts as a living, digital wrap binder.
