Plan the light.
Keep the shoot together.
A simple tool for planning lighting and set-ups, with the shoot's notes right beside the plot.
Free during the open beta. Or try it now without an account.
See the light before you rig it
Place lights, flags, bounce and diffusion, and watch the beams and shadows follow. Try it here: move the light, the frame and the flag.
Draw the room in a minute
Start from a room preset and drag a corner to fit what you measured on the recce. Windows, doors and curtains move with their walls. Give it a go.
Notes, to-dos and ideas in one place
Every set-up has its own board. Write notes, tick off to-dos and branch out ideas, right next to the plot they belong to. Add a few here and it zooms out to keep them all in view.
