Set up your cameras, audio and post workflow — the app does the math for storage, cards, drives, backup, transcodes and time.
ARRI, Sony, RED, Blackmagic, Canon, DJI, GoPro and iPhone — with real codecs, resolution modes, frame-rate limits, colour profiles and sensor sizes. Add your own custom cameras too.
Add your recorder, track count, sample rate and bit depth — the app folds PCM audio storage and sound cards into the daily and project totals.
Precise originals, audio and proxy volumes for A-, B-, C-cam setups across the whole schedule, including test/grid days.
Add multiple proxy formats and the app calculates transcode time (e.g. in DaVinci Resolve), dailies cloud storage, and upload times for both cloud delivery and editorial hand-off — at your machine and bandwidth speeds.
Memory cards per day (with a spare), rotating shuttle drives, and on-set RAID / HDD / LTO backup — sized and counted automatically.
A complete archive plan — tape generation, number of copies, tapes needed, verification and total write time.
Realistic offload, checksum-verify and backup times per day, so you can plan the DIT cart and turnaround with confidence.
Standard producer reports and complete technical reports for camera & post — with your logo, contact details and sensor-coverage diagrams.
Each project is a single file. Keep it in a Dropbox, Google Drive or iCloud Drive folder to open it on another Mac or iPad.
