Does Scriptation work with SetHero?
Yes! We’ve partnered with SetHero to help streamline the process of translating your detailed script breakdowns into clear and effective call sheets. Our SetHero integration allows you to export your script’s tagged scene data that you can then import to automatically create the building blocks for your production’s call sheets.
Whether you’re an assistant director, production coordinator, or producer, this integration eliminates errors and helps your production flow seamlessly from script analysis to set management.
And the best benefit of all? It will save you the time you would normally spend manually entering each:
- Scene Number and Description
- Set Name
- Interior/Exterior Label
- Story Day
- Scene Page Count
- Day/Night Labels
- Cast/Character Name
