What it is
Shamel Studio provides web tools for film and TV production scheduling, budgeting, call sheets, and production reports. Its scheduling tool uploads a PDF script and creates an initial breakdown in under 20 seconds. The scheduling workspace includes a stripboard, scene breakdown, Day Out of Days reports, and conflict alerts, with exports to PDF or Movie Magic Scheduling 6 and 10 formats. Budgeting can bring shoot days, cast, locations, and other elements over from a schedule, then populate union and guild rates and fringes. Call sheets use schedule details and support weather forecasts, cast and crew call times, department notes, and PDF distribution. Production reports draw on call sheet data and include custom sections, fields, templates, time tracking, and PDF export. The site currently supports PDF scripts; other formats such as FDX are in development. Properly formatted scripts in several Latin-alphabet languages, including Spanish and French, can be processed. The free plan is free and permits one project. Scheduling is $23 a month per user when billed yearly; Scheduling + Budgeting is $45 a month per user when billed yearly.
