Where ScriptMeets Schedule

Nineagents

Script breakdown, scheduling, and clearance are the unautomated gap between a finished draft and a first day of principal photography. This closes it in about two minutes.

The gap

Between a finished draft and a first day of photography sits two to three weeks of work nobody has automated. A 1st AD tags every prop and stunt onto a breakdown sheet, then packs the scenes into days that minimise company moves without stranding an actor on hold pay. A clearance researcher checks every name, business, plate and address against the real world, because no film gets insured without it. A line producer turns all of it into a top sheet a financier will read.

Step one

Hand over the draft

untitled.fountain

Where you intend to shoot. This drives the permit research and the clearance searches, because a name only becomes a legal problem in a place. An alderman in Chicago is not an alderman in Atlanta.

Every shooting day gets a real date, weekends skipped. Leave it blank and the schedule starts the Monday after next, which is about the lead time a film permit needs.

The crew

Waiting on the API to list the nine agents. If this does not fill in, the backend is unreachable.

What comes back when the crew wraps

Every scene as a coloured strip, grouped into shooting days that minimise company moves and keep night work contiguous. A deterministic optimiser proposes the board; the Scheduler agent applies the judgement an optimiser cannot encode.
