Production Scheduling Software for Real Shoot Days
Build shooting days, organize schedule rows, switch between schedule views, track production changes, and export a plan your crew can use.
Plan availability
Core scheduling is included on Free. Advanced exports and revisions require Pro or higher.
Multiple schedule views
Move between detailed, board, stripboard, simple, and advanced views without rebuilding the production.
Drag-and-drop ordering
Reorder rows and shooting days as locations, cast, equipment, or timing changes.
Production-aware planning
Keep schedule rows connected to the production catalog, shots, contacts, files, and day-of workflow.
Built around the production, not a disconnected generator
CinePlan keeps the schedule connected to the production instead of isolating it in a spreadsheet. Build days, reorder work as circumstances change, and keep locations, contacts, equipment, shots, and revisions close to the plan they affect.
