The next step in our journey is here! We’ve gone digital!

Welcome to the next stage of Filmmaking Planner - where we provide customised filmmaking tools and film and TV industry stationery for indie filmmakers! We've embraced the power of technology to give you a digital alternative to our beloved paper and pen hardcopy planner. Whether you're a fan of the tactile sensation of writing or prefer the convenience of digital tools, we've got you covered. 

With our Filmmaking Digital Planner, you'll enjoy even greater flexibility and a host of benefits:

Portability:

With our Filmmaking Digital Planner, your ideas can seamlessly transition from the chaotic notes app to the structured realm of the filmmaking process. Wherever inspiration strikes, jump into your Filmmaking Planner and type your ideas directly into customised filmmaking templates, synopsis pages, film title idea pages, or any section that sparks your creativity!

Affordability:

With our Filmmaking Digital Planner, there's no need for ink, paper, shipping, or binding costs. This eliminates traditional expenses associated with hardcopy versions, allowing us to provide a cost-effective tool in comparisons to other digital  production planners. We're committed to making quality filmmaking tools accessible to everyone on their creative journey.

The Environment:

While our hardcopy planners have their merits, it's essential to acknowledge the environmental impact of traditional business operations. Opting for our digital Filmmaking Planner significantly reduces our carbon footprint by eliminating the need for paper, ink, and shipping. We are committed to sustainability in our business practices, offering both hardcopy and digital options to cater to different preferences while striving to minimise our impact on the environment. Join us in making a positive change for our planet.

Customisation:

Your filmmaking journey is unique, and so should your planner be. You have a selection of five colours to choose from to set the tone of your film project. Enjoy the freedom to add, remove, or rearrange pages to suit your project. Incorporate additional images, and virtual links and make use of our bonus 180 digital filmmaker stickers to stamp your personality on your planner. 

Backup and Collaboration:

Retrieve your planner seamlessly on any device—be it your phone, tablet, or laptop. Our digital planner not only puts your filmmaking world at your fingertips wherever you go but also enables effortless sharing of pages with team members. Collaborate seamlessly by working together on shared pages, allowing for a dynamic and streamlined filmmaking process with your team. Carry more with less effort and enhance collaboration in your creative journey!
