Second, delayed real-time, so that two people can get on different airplanes, and their changes are intelligently merged - any sync conflicts that require any babysitting would be a deal-breaker. Our goals? First, real-time sync with a max of 5 seconds delay. This takes heavy lifting that requires a dedicated sync service. The Script Supervisor logs the shots, and puts in the Director’s edits for him. In our vision for the future, productions simply abandon paper and do all the shot management in Shot Designer. However, that precludes the ability to collaborate in real-time, and leaves Shot Designer a single-user app. Sure, we could throw in the DropBox API, and you’d be syncing soon. Here’s Hollywood Camera Work on the sync feature they envision (and why it isn’t ready yet): And if future iterations maybe worked in hotkey options for desktop versions, and if the company is able to provide the syncing systems it’s looking into, I can say that I myself would be happy to lay down one Andrew Jackson U.S.

I only stress these limitations of the free version of the app because, actually, it seems to me like Shot Designer Pro is a fantastic scene-diagramming engine, and one that is almost certainly worth the $20 it costs. This actually makes sense, given that its design makes it entirely practical to use on something like an iPad, which really only has the input method of ‘clicking.’ Scrolling works too, but again, that’s because you can scroll on a touch-only tablet. Not to mention it looks as though the desktop version of Shot Designer (and I’d assume the same would be true of the Pro desktop version, though anyone who owns it may let me know if this is incorrect) has only one input method - clicking.

So even though you can run Shot Designer for free on both your PC and your mobile, you can’t transfer files back and forth between them - and again, you can only work on one scene at a time. In fact, with the free version, you can’t actually save your scene in any traditional sense (short of taking a screen-cap of it). That’s right - you can’t export to any of those formats without purchasing the upgrade.

If all of this seems too good to be true, here’s the list of things you can only do with the Pro version:‘Scene Freeze’ - allows you to snapshot a configuration you can return to if you want to, say, experiment and revertExporting to PDF, MS Excel, or JPG, plus emailing your layouts and shotlistsUnlimited Folder Structure to get as complex with your planning as you need

I gave the Mac desktop version a shot, and it is indeed as intuitive, simple, and easy to use as it seems (although, for a computer with a keyboard, it may be too simple - more on this below). These videos demonstrate how elegantly each of these features is implemented, and in a design perfect for mobile situations.

Here’s the basic rundown of what the free version of the app allows you to design (and why it’s so cool):Camera placement and angle of viewCharacter placement and angle of orientationAnimation of camera/character paths - multi-step blocking, akin to storyboarding ‘keyframes’ in a moving shotShotlists - items are easily connected to points in the diagramImporting storyboards - also easily connected to points in the diagramDirector’s Viewfinder - uses your mobile device’s camera to visualize various focal lengthsBuilt-in Set Designer - customization of floor-plansLighting Designer - light type/placement and orientationPre-made Plots - easily load and modify common setupsiOS and Android compatible - includes smart-phones (where ‘Pocket-Blocking’ truly applies)Mac and PC compatible - but not in direct connection with your mobile (see Pro options below)
Read on for the intro video and a more detailed list of Shot Designer’s features. A limited (single-scene-at-a-time) release is available for free, and the $20 Pro version has some key perks too. An intuitive interface allows precise control for plotting (and animating) all the essential aspects of shooting your scene in a classic top-down diagram style. Thanks to Hollywood Camera Work’s new app Shot Designer, you can now design and block camera coverage of your scene almost as fast as you can think it - even on your mobile device.
