Call sheets

Understand why a call sheet cannot be created

Know what the Create Call Sheet dialog is telling you when it offers no day to choose.

Beginner3 stepsWindows

Before you start

  • The Call Sheets page is open.

Steps

  1. In a project with no call sheets, read the empty page and click Create Call Sheet.

    The page says Create a call sheet from a shooting day. You can use the button in the middle of the page or the one at the top right. Both open the same dialog.

  2. If the dialog says Create a shooting schedule and a shooting day first., click Open Schedule.

    The project has no shooting schedule yet, so there is nothing to build a call sheet from. Open Schedule closes the dialog and takes you to the schedule, where you create the schedule and its shooting days. Create Call Sheet stays greyed out until a day exists. Come back to Call Sheets afterwards.

  3. If the dialog says Every shooting day already has a call sheet. Open it from the list to update it., click Cancel.

    Each shooting day has one call sheet at a time. The picture shows a project where Shoot Day 1 to Shoot Day 4 all have one. Open the sheet you want from the list. To add a new day, add it in the schedule first.

What you get

You know whether to build the schedule, add a shooting day or open an existing call sheet.

Watch out for

  • Create Call Sheet in the dialog is greyed out in both of these cases. That is expected, not a fault.
