About CineLog: Film Pre-Production
CineLog: Pre-Production for Filmmakers The all-in-one workspace for directors, DPs, and producers to plan films with clarity and speed. CineLog combines script editing, breakdowns, scheduling, shot listing, storyboarding, and call sheets in one simple platform, on your desktop, your phone, and in the browser, so you can spend less time organizing and more time creating. Call Sheets Turn your prep work into production-ready documents. CineLog aggregates your schedule, locations, cast, and crew into industry-standard call sheets. Set a crew call time and watch the schedule engine cascade precise start times for every scene and break. Locations are saved per project, with address, parking, and nearest hospital. Export pixel-perfect PDFs with your company logo, or send tracked email blasts so your team can confirm receipt directly from their inbox. Schedule Plan your shoot on a classic stripboard. Build shooting days, drag scene strips between them, and split a scene across days. Cast and locations sit right on the strips, a finished day flows straight into its call sheet, and the whole board exports as a PDF. Smart Shot Listing Design every shot with precision. Add lenses, camera moves, gear notes, and scene references with a clean, intuitive interface. Whether you are building a commercial, music video, or narrative film, CineLog makes it easy to plan visually and stay production ready. Cast & Crew Build your roster before you even know who you are hiring. Add roles and departments to create vacant slots, then assign contacts as your team comes together. Create custom roles to match how your workspace really runs. Organize with a visual Kanban board or browse a simple contacts rolodex. Control exactly who can access your project with granular, role-based permissions and one-tap invitations. Focus Mode Work scene by scene without the clutter of your entire shot list. Focus Mode lets you isolate one or more scenes at a time, making it easier to plan details and stay clear on your creative vision. Storyboard Integration Attach images, sketches, or reference frames directly to each shot. Rearrange shots with drag and drop simplicity and keep your boards and lists linked in one place. Your visual plan stays flexible, fluid, and easy to share. Script Breakdown Mark up your script the way you would with colored pencils on paper. Tag props, wardrobe, vehicles, and any of the twelve standard categories, and CineLog picks up speaking characters on its own. Tagged cast flows into your shot list, your schedule, and your call sheets, and breakdown sheets export as PDF. Script Editor Write on real script pages. The editor shows true US Letter pages with industry-standard margins, and the page break you see is the page break in your exported PDF. CineLog recognizes scene headings and character names and can parse a shot list straight from the script. Import a Fountain or Final Draft file and review every change before it lands. And when you move into production, lock your script: locked pages keep their numbers, new material goes to A-pages, revised lines get stars, and every revision round gets its own page color. Export and Production Ready Generate clean, professional scripts, breakdown sheets, schedules, shot lists, storyboards, and call sheets ready for set. CineLog helps you move seamlessly from prep to shoot day, ensuring nothing gets lost in translation.

What’s new
Version 1.5.6 · Updated October 20, 2026
The page holds steady as you write, so the text stays where you are looking when you press Enter or Backspace. And typing is more forgiving: parentheticals, character names you go back and fix, and action lines after a speech all land as what you meant them to be. Importing a screenplay from a PDF now reads the page by where each line sits, so action, cues, dialogue, parentheticals, scene headings and transitions come in as themselves. Dual dialogue arrives as two speeches, page numbers and CONTINUED markers stay off your script, and scene numbers land on their headings, lettered ones included. Pick the file and it opens in the editor, with the steps on screen while it reads, detects and prepares. Sync keeps every edit, wherever you made it. Close one device halfway through a scene, open the project on another, and the edit is there. Work offline for a week, come back online, and CineLog sends the backlog in pieces until it is all through. The first shot you add after switching projects appears right away, and signing in is quicker. The Cast & Crew column in the shot list shows your cast by number, the same numbers as the schedule, and your crew by initials. The breakdown's cast auto-tag marks every line a character speaks. On a call sheet, the weather hint tells you exactly what it still needs and when the forecast was fetched. Plus bug fixes and performance improvements.
