Shot Designer 1.80.8
Shot Designer 1.80.8 macOS
Shot Designer makes it ridiculously easy to block complex scenes, complete with Camera Diagram, Animation, Shot List, Storyboards, Director’s Viewfinder, and Sync & Team Sharing.
Neither Camera Diagrams, Shot Lists, Storyboards, or Animation by themselves give you a satisfying understanding of camera-blocking – you have to use them together. Shot Designer gives you a superior understanding of your scene, and is the ultimate Director’s creativity tool.
A Camera Diagram That Makes Itself
Shot Designer dramatically speeds up the Director’s process of making camera diagrams.
Shot Designer is FAST. The app knows how Directing works and does most of the work for you – like automatically moving cameras when you move characters.
Shot Designer is fast enough that you can use it with even with actors waiting!
A Shot List That Writes Itself
The integrated Shot List is tied into the diagram and writes itself while you work. Edit shots intuitively in the diagram, not in a spreadsheet.
Everything in the app is connected. Any changes you make in the diagram update the shot list, and any changes you make in the shot list change the diagram.
Animate Action in Real-Time
Animate your characters and cameras to move around your diagram in real-time. Previsualize the rhythm of a scene by seeing it play out.
Animating takes literally seconds, and your scene stays flexible, so you can keep changing it.
Use Storyboards In Your Blocking
Storyboards are great for action-sequences, but blocking drama is about coverage, and that’s easier to do in a diagram.
With Shot Designer, you can bring one of the main benefits of storyboards back into your camera diagram, which is seeing what camera-angles look like.
Tip: Instead of drawing whole storyboard-sequences, just draw the keyframes that tell the story, then put it all together in the diagram. It’s freer and funner.
Integrated Director’s Viewfinder
Use the integrated Professional Director’s Viewfinder as both a storyboard replacement, and the ultimate location-scouting tool for Directors. Build your scene blocking and try out scenes while you’re on location!
The Director’s Viewfinder supports all major camera formats, so you get a perfect record of the exact lens used for a shot.
