StudioBinder
StudioBinder is a web production-management platform for studios, production companies, brands, and marketing agencies. It covers work from scripting through production. Writing tools handle industry-format screenplays, two-column AV scripts, and documents. Teams can break down scripts, build shooting schedules, generate script sides, and produce production reports. Mood boards, shot lists, and storyboards support visual planning, while contacts, calendars, task boards, and a shared media library organize collaboration. Call sheets can be filled with weather, location, cast, and nearest-hospital details, then sent by email or text with delivery tracking. Listed integrations include Fountain, Google Maps, Final Draft, PDF, CSV, and Slack. Data and files are encrypted in transit and at rest and hosted in the US on AWS.
