Plan your next film,
not your next spreadsheet
CinePlan gives indie filmmakers a dedicated production scheduling tool — break down scripts, build shooting schedules, generate call sheets, and coordinate your crew. All powered by AI, starting free.
Sound familiar?
Indie filmmakers shouldn't need a line producer's budget to plan a shoot.
Spreadsheet chaos
You're managing your shooting schedule in Google Sheets, your call sheets in Docs, and your shot list in a notebook. Nothing connects.
Pro tools, pro prices
StudioBinder starts at $42/mo. Filmustage at $66/mo. You're an indie filmmaker — your entire catering budget might be $66.
Manual script breakdowns
Going through your screenplay page by page, highlighting scenes, extracting locations, cast, and props by hand. It takes hours.
Last-minute schedule changes
Your location fell through. Now you need to restructure three days of shooting and notify your entire cast and crew.
How CinePlan helps filmmakers
Every feature is built for the way indie filmmakers actually work.
AI Script Breakdown
Upload your screenplay PDF and let AI extract scenes, locations, cast, and props automatically. Minutes, not hours.
Visual Schedule Builder
Build detailed shot lists with camera specs, then arrange storyboard frames to plan every angle before you step on set. Drag-and-drop scenes across shooting days and export to Google Calendar or Outlook.
Professional Call Sheets
Generate print-ready call sheets for each shooting day with crew call times, location details, and scene breakdowns.
Day-Out-of-Days Report
Instantly see which days each cast member works, starts, or holds — the industry-standard DOOD report, generated automatically.
Weather Integration
See weather forecasts for each shooting day right on your schedule. Plan outdoor scenes around conditions before they become a problem.
Production Templates
Start from short film or documentary templates with labeled days, activity types, and realistic schedules. Customize from there.
