Movie Magic Scheduling 5 and Reel Production Calendar
Movie Magic Scheduling is a software solution that thinks the way schedulers think, featuring powerful new tools that provide increased flexibility and versatility in the way schedules can be created and viewed.
Your production schedule is the essential tool that takes your project from script to actionable plan. Specifically designed for the complexities of production, schedules were originally completed through a trial-and-error process involving repeated manipulation of paper and plastic strips along a board.
But then came Movie Magic. The most widely used production scheduling application, Movie Magic Scheduling 5 offers a range of scheduling tools and flexibility not found elsewhere.
Workflows are designed to incorporate the time-tested concepts of the stripboard while offering a variety of scenarios to consider: schedules reflecting different shoot lengths, re-ordered scenes, comparisons in location, and more are just a click away.
Based on continuous feedback from you, the user, Movie Magic Scheduling 5 saves time, increases efficiency, and prepares schedules that allow your team to make the best production decisions possible.
The Reel Production Calendar allows you to easily create and organize a list of the items you need to manage through drag and drop or a simple point and type interface. Imbed notes in items or days to store large amounts of information without taking up precious space.
When the schedule changes you can easily adjust the calendar by moving items between days or pushing and pulling large groups of items. Easily select entire categories or single items to show or hide for display, printing and sharing with other calendar users.
Save sets of shown or hidden information to easily switch between calendar types. Link relates items so when one moves others move automatically! Once you’re ready you can print or share just the information you want, just the way you want to.
Whether your managing yourself, a department, multiple departments or an entire show this is the software you’ve been waiting for. Use any style, color or size you wish. No more cutting and pasting hundreds of times when a schedule changes; simply push or pull to update your calendar. No more keeping 10 or 15 different files for each type of calendar you need. Maintain 1 calendar, 1 file and only show, share and print the items you want to. Create, display, print and share a calendar with anyone on the project.
