Welcome to FilmKit

FilmKit lets you and your team take a film, series, or short from the first draft of the screenplay to the last shooting day in one place. The script, the breakdown, the schedule, the call sheets, casting, and crew all stay connected, so a change to the screenplay shows up everywhere it matters. Everyone in a project works together in real time, and the people who only need documents receive exactly what you publish to them.

How this guide is organized

  • Chapters follow a production. They start with getting set up, move through writing, planning, and shooting, and end with people, publishing, and ways to work faster.
  • Each chapter opens with an introduction. The Intro to page explains the ideas behind the area, then links to the tasks.
  • Task pages show you how to do one thing. Each one has numbered steps and a screenshot of the screen you work in.
  • Reference pages are for looking things up. See FilmKit interface, Keyboard shortcuts, and the Glossary.

If you're new to FilmKit, start with Intro to FilmKit, then read FilmKit workflow.
