LOUIE'S DESK today's read↻ RefreshFirst, assign a date to the remaining shoot day so the eight-day run can lock. Then move the nine scouting locations to confirmed, and begin casting the 16 open parts before availability narrows. With 13 days to camera, Day 1's call sheet is the next useful checkpoint.

Elle D.Costume Designer✓ ConfirmedOn every production there are hundreds of questions that need answering, and half your time goes to tracking them down through different threads. HLIDE keeps it all in one place, answered, so you can get back to the part that really matters. The creative.
Every production lives in one studio. Crew gets their own account, with every project they work on in one place, across every company they work with.
Today’s call, who’s confirmed, what’s outstanding, and what changed since you last looked.
Upload it here and it breaks down to every department, so everyone is working from the same page.
Contacts, rates, availability and deal memos in one place, and everyone you work with stays in your studio directory for the next job.
Every department gets its own workspace and the tools they actually use, while staying connected to everything happening across the production. You control what each department can see, share, and access.
Every tool you need to stay organized, on time, and on budget, and if your production doesn’t need one of them, hide it and the row disappears.
+9+9You can gate each department so only the people you name can open and see it.
People who have access to this department show here.
Not every production runs every tool. Hide the ones you don’t need and the row disappears.
The script and the look.
Drop in the PDF. HLIDE reads it in seconds, pulling out every scene, character and location, and tagging Set Dec, Props and Wardrobe for each department to approve. What they approve becomes the living script, so nobody is passing around marked-up PDFs.
Start with a screenplay, a client deck, or just a feeling. Build boards for references, treatments, floor plans, wardrobe, and more. Drop in anything you need, move it around, and keep the creative conversation in one place.
