I've been looking to use some scheduling software for the film project and I recently came across Sun Frog. Not only does the software look interesting but I love the company's approach. They have a blog and a discussion group, a cafe press store, a competition for the best production of the sample script that ships with the product and finally, you can rent the software, which I think is great for film productions.
I'm going to try out the trial version for the next few weeks and, if I like it, I'll rent it for the duration of the production.
You may be wondering why bother using film scheduling software for what is a short film with skeleton crew. The simple answer is that I'm fascinated by production management (I even have an Amazon.com List of production management books) and I want to manage this production as if it were a full feature production.
The original post was in the categories: filmmaking alibi_phone_network but I'm still in the process of migrating categories over.
