Build the shooting day once — cast, crew, locations, weather and scenes compose themselves, then go out to the unit.
The call sheet is the day’s single source of truth, and in Cinethread it isn’t a document you retype every night. It assembles from what already lives in your production: the scenes you scheduled, the people in your Library, the locations you saved, and the weather for that date. You edit the parts that are genuinely different today, then send.
The day editor — scenes from the schedule, people from your Library, weather and the nearest hospital filled in. You change what’s genuinely different today, then Send. Every mock in this Help Center is drawn from the real screens; the data is our fictional Wildflower shoot.
A production is one screen with a row of tabs across the top, and the call sheet is what the Days tab builds. The rest of the tabs are the same production seen from a different angle — the same people, dates and locations underneath.
Building a day is a block stack you can reorder — header, schedule, cast, crew, locations, notes. The bar tracks how complete the sheet is and names what’s still missing before it’s safe to send.
Building a day happens in a block stack you can reorder — production header, schedule, cast, crew, locations, notes. The bar across the top tracks how complete the sheet is and tells you what's still missing before it's safe to send.
What the crew opens — their own call, the day, directions. No account, no download.
Recipients don't get a PDF attachment they have to pinch and zoom. They get a private link that opens to their call time, with the day's schedule, directions and a confirm button underneath.
Set the shooting call and department calls flow from it, so a schedule shift doesn’t leave stale times behind.
Sunrise, sunset and the forecast for the location and date are pulled in automatically.
Distribute by email, then see who’s viewed the sheet — no more chasing confirmations.
Changed something after sending? Push the update and everyone’s live link refreshes.
The nearest hospital travels with the location — address, drive time and phone, already on the sheet.
Download a print-ready PDF for the wall, the van, or anyone who still wants paper.
Yes — resend to a single recipient without re-sending to the whole unit. Useful when one person's call moves.
Add scenes straight onto the sheet. The Schedule is a convenience, not a prerequisite.
The full sheet shows the unit's calls, as a call sheet should. What's personalised is the top of each recipient's mobile view — it leads with their own call.
