Powerful Paperless Call Sheet





Business Situation:

The client wanted us to build a powerful portal that could be used to create and publish call sheets for film, television, commercials, and music videos. He wanted a flow that would enable the production company to create a call sheet using any of the easy-to-use templates and publish call sheets utilizing email, text and phone messaging. Also, the client requested a function that would allow him to become informed when any of the recipients read the call sheet via mail text and phone messaging. It needed to be a complete portal where he could create the call sheets, publish, and verify them. This portal would make it very easy for the film maker to keep track of the crew's working hours and, therefore, the billing information.

In short, we needed to deliver a comprehensive portal with features that would efficiently manage the work of film makers, photographers, and crew members.

Business Solution:

Considering the needs of the client, we delivered a call sheet that was specifically created for filmmakers, photographers, and creators. Analyzing the requirements, we developed a feature- rich portal that would serve all of the client's needs.


The portal uses the most powerful technologies, such as Ruby on Rails, and offers the following features:

  • Publishes call sheets using email, text, and phone messaging
  • Receives instant notification as your call sheet is viewed
  • Archives call sheets in a personal myCalltime database
  • Searches and hires crew members using the myCalltime crew finder.

In brief, we created a paperless call sheet portal that enables film makers to create, publish, and verify call sheets, thereby managing tasks in the most cost effective manner.


 

Client Testimonial

I am very lucky to have found Softweb Solutions. They have been and continue to be excellent partners. I contracted Softweb Solutions to build a highly complex website for use in film and television production. Realizing myCalltime has required fresh out of the box thinking. Along the way there have been many technical hurdles to overcome and the Softweb team has been very efficient and creative in solving the problems. Communicating has been excellent throughout the process and I look forwards to a lasting relationship into the future.
