Shoot

The Shoot stage is the on-set workspace. Lock the app into shoot mode and the shot list becomes the working document — large status controls, scene context in the top bar, clapperboard panel a tap away. No editing of script, no editing of shot details, no accidental swipes.

#A read-only shot list, a one-tap status

In shoot mode the shot list is read-only. Shot details are visible — size, angle, movement, description, the "Why" note, the storyboard frame — but you can't edit them. The only action is the status control: tap once to mark a shot Shooting, tap again to mark it Done. Tap to undo. The control is sized for set conditions: gloved fingers, glare on the screen, fast tempo.

The active scene fills the top of the screen with its slugline. Below, the shot list scrolls within the active scene. A bottom strip shows the next scene up so the AD knows what's queued.

#The clapperboard panel

A swipe pulls up a digital clapperboard for the current shot. Scene, shot, take, camera roll, sound roll, the director's name, the DOP's name. Edit takes as you go; copy the slate to the system clipboard for slate management on the camera side. The panel is intentionally compact — it surfaces the slate, then steps out of the way.

#Reference photos for the editor

In the middle of a take you can snap a reference photo against the shot. The photo attaches as a reference frame on the shot's storyboard sequence — no exit, no separate camera app, no re-importing later. Editors who work with FramePath frames get continuity references that match what was actually on set.

#Off the iPad after wrap

Shoot mode is a stage of the same project, not a separate app. Done shots sync back to Plan when you exit shoot mode; the planning workspace shows what was completed and what was skipped. Storyboard reference frames captured on set ride along into post.

#What shoot mode isn't

It isn't a script supervisor's continuity log. It isn't a sound report. It isn't a camera report. It is the shot list, large and quick, in a layout that survives a 12-hour day on an exterior location. The other crew documents come out of the standard PDF exports.
