About

Slatefox is a web-based production planning tool for indie crews preparing scripts for shoots. It is intended for producer-directors, first assistant directors, student crews, and small teams working on shorts, music videos, commercials, web series, documentaries, and features. Users can paste script text to create scenes and characters, or use the AI Script Parser to produce scenes, cast, and breakdowns in one pass. They can build a stripboard, arrange shoot days on a calendar, and view page totals. Slatefox generates PDF call sheets with sun, weather, and cast call times, as well as day-out-of-days reports. Continuity notes and photos can be pinned to scenes. The Day Simulator updates overtime, daylight, turnaround, and day structure as schedules change. Auto Day-Out proposes scene groupings based on location, interior or exterior, day or night, and cast availability; users review proposals before applying them. Slatefox says it works offline, requires no account, and keeps scripts on users’ devices. Cloud sync is available for productions spanning devices. Free is free; Indie is 19.00 EUR per month, and Studio is 59.00 EUR per month.
