Shot list software that plans every shot, lens and angle.
Build the shot list from the script, set lens, movement and framing per shot, then generate a board image for any row. It syncs straight to the storyboard, so coverage and visuals never drift apart.

The pipeline
Where Shotlist sits in the production flow.
The bridge between writing and shooting. Shotlist takes a finished screenplay + a broken-down scene and outputs a per-shot plan with full cinematography parameters. Send a row to the AI Artist for an on-model frame; send a shot to the editor as a storyboard panel; send a column to the schedule as the day's setup count.
DollyAI™ in this app
AI commands wired into Shotlist.
A few of the 200+ DollyAI commands across the suite, here in Shotlist. Every one shows its credit cost before you commit, and every response is anchored in your real project - not a generic prompt.
Bulk-parse screenplay
1 crPer-scene cost. NDJSON streaming parser builds a full feature shotlist in one run with per-scene credit accounting.
Suggest coverage
2 crReads a scene + suggests 3-7 shots covering the action with master / OTS / coverage / insert.
Suggest framing
1 crPer-row: given the action + dialogue, suggest shot type + lens + angle.
Generate frame
25 crSend the row to the AI Artist - locked-style frame against this specific shot's lens + angle + mood.
Continuity check
3 crCross-scene check that camera angles + lens choices + lighting setups read consistent across coverage.
Alternates
2 crSurfaces 3 alternate framings for this shot - useful when the director wants options.
Talks to every app
Shotlist reads + writes to the same project file.
No re-entry, no copy-paste, no out-of-sync versions. Every connection below is a live data path in the running product.
Script
Every shot row carries its source scene ID. Rename a heading in /script - the linked shots stay linked.
Breakdown
Per-shot element counts flow back to the breakdown for re-verification ("this shot needs a sword the breakdown didn't catch").
AI Artist
Per-row Send to AI Artist - generate a frame against this shot's actual lens + angle + lighting + mood.
Editor
Per-shot Send to Editor - the row lands as a storyboard panel with scene linkage preserved.
Shoot
Per-day shotlist filtered export feeds the AC's shoot-day printout. Setup count rolls up to the schedule.
