Coming Soon: Script Supervisor for iPad

Good news for all you Script Supervisors out there!

Netfox Media is about to release an app just for you, appropriately named Script Supervisor. According to their website, the new app will allow you to upload daily logs, easily fill in production reports, read screenplays while logging, and access an easy timecode tool.

But wait, there’s more… It’s FREE! They may begin charging a fee for downloading production reports and continuity logs, but according to their site, it’s currently all completely free of charge. Can’t beat that!

There’s a chance the app has already been released in your country’s AppStore. I tried clicking the AppStore link on their website, but iTunes said it wasn’t available in the US yet. Your mileage may vary. Update: The developer has informed me that Script Supervisor has not been released anywhere yet.  I’ll let you know as soon as it hits the AppStore.

Shang-Chi Director Directed From His iPhone

Taz Goldstein September 9, 2021

I enjoyed reading this brief ScreenRant story, so I thought I’d share it here. It describes how Destin Daniel Cretton, the director of Marvel’s Shang-Chi and The Legend of the Ten Rings, was forced to direct an important scene via his iPhone while in the hospital for the birth of his child! Sadly, it doesn’t divulge the details of that unusual workflow, but it’s an excellent reminder that we’re all toting the world’s most versatile piece of filmmaking gear in our pockets and purses!
