THE WORK, CONNECTED

One project. A clearer line from prep to handoff.

Independent productions juggle creative decisions and operational detail at once. Studio Manager is designed to keep the work organized around the project.

Plan the production

Break down scripts, shape budgets and schedules, and coordinate the moving parts.

Keep records with the work

Organize agreements, permissions, licenses, releases and approved AI uses.

Prepare the project to travel

Track ownership, clearances, credits, deliverables and files in one checklist.

01 / PRODUCTION PLANNING

A working plan for a production that keeps changing.

Start with the screenplay, then keep the budget, schedule, crew, expenses and production risks close to the decisions they depend on.

PLANNING AREAWHAT STAYS IN VIEW

01Script breakdownsScenes, locations, cast and production needs

02Editable budgets and schedulesPlanning that can move with the project

03Crew, expenses and risksThe details producers need to keep in view

02 / RIGHTS & PERMISSIONS

Keep permission and scope attached to the project.

Give the team one place to organize agreements and the records behind how performances, music, locations and approved AI uses may be used.

Studio Manager helps organize records and flag missing documentation. It does not replace legal advice or determine whether a production is compliant.

03 / DISTRIBUTION READINESS

Know what is ready before the next introduction.

Use a project checklist to track the ownership documents, clearances, credits, deliverables and files to gather before approaching distributors, sales agents, festivals or streaming services.

A more organized project can make a clearer approach; it cannot guarantee distribution or a sale.
