What FilmSchedule is

FilmSchedule is desktop production software for macOS and Windows. It combines script breakdown, location management, stripboard scheduling, production calendars, call sheets, DOODs, sides, and report exports in one workflow. Scripts can be imported from PDF, Final Draft .fdx, tagged .sex scheduling files, and Scriptation workflows; Scriptation breakdown data is brought in through an .sss export during the stated testing phase. The connected stripboard and calendar show day breaks, off days, page totals, and unscheduled scenes. Smart Schedule previews proposals using cast and location availability, while DOODs track cast work, start, hold, and finish patterns. Production-ready PDFs and Excel files can include shooting schedules, call sheets, sides, and reports. The app works offline, and its maker says scripts are not uploaded to the web, although first activation needs internet access. Projects can be shared through Dropbox or another file-sync service, with locking to prevent simultaneous writing. The trial shows up to 25 scenes and disables PDF export.
