Create the shooting schedule

Steps

1. In the sidebar click Production, then choose Schedule in the pop-up at the top of the page. Click Create Shooting Schedule.

   Until a schedule exists the page says: Create a shooting schedule from your screenplay. Below it, a line tells you the production source and how many scenes it has. Break down your script first, then move scenes into shooting days.

2. Read the sheet that opens. Under Screenplay source, check the screenplay named there, then click Create Schedule.

   The sheet shows the screenplay and its scene count. It says: All 10 scenes will start in the Unscheduled pool. Scenes that need a location or cast will show it from your Breakdown once available. Cancel closes the sheet and creates nothing.

3. Look at the Board that opens.

   A message at the bottom says Created the shooting schedule, with Undo and Dismiss. The Unscheduled column lists every scene, and the area beside it says: Create a shooting day, then drag scenes into it. The warnings button reads 0 warnings because nothing is scheduled yet.
