About Shot Designer
WHAT IS SHOT DESIGNER?
• CAMERA DIAGRAM - Shot Designer dramatically speeds up the Director's process of making camera diagrams. Create full-blown diagrams in minutes. The software does most of the work.
• ANIMATION - Animate your characters and cameras to move around your diagram in real-time. Previsualize the rhythm of a scene by seeing it play out.
• SHOT LIST - The integrated Shot List is tied into the diagram and writes itself while you work. Edit shots intuitively in the diagram, not in a confusing spreadsheet.
• DIRECTOR'S VIEWFINDER / STORYBOARDS - Bring in lens-accurate camera angles via the integrated Director's Viewfinder or Storyboard Import.
• MAC/PC DESKTOP VERSION - An identical Mac/PC Desktop Version is included with the Pro Version (in-app upgrade).
• SYNC & TEAM SHARING VIA DROPBOX - Sync your scenes across all your devices. Share scene folders with teams. Control who owns which scene. (Pro Feature)

CAMERA-BLOCKING ON STEROIDS
Shot Designer was developed by Per Holmes, the creator of the Hollywood Camera Work training.
Shot Designer is based on the realization that neither Camera Diagrams, Shot Lists, or Storyboards by themselves give you a satisfying understanding of camera-blocking -- you have to use them *together*.
Shot Designer is FAST. The app knows how Directing works and automatically does most of the work for you. Cameras rearrange themselves when you move characters. Animate characters and cameras with simple Walk To and Track To commands. Create sophisticated tracking shots with multiple marks. Shot Designer is fast enough that you can rearrange the diagram with actors waiting.
OTHER FEATURES
• Integrated Set Designer for building floor plans.
• Integrated Lighting Designer for DPs, with lighting symbols provided by Ari Golan of Atomic Imaging Studios Chicago.
• Import production drawings as backgrounds and block on top of them.
• Factory Templates of pre-made camera setups for any situation.
• Make your own templates as starting points for new scenes.
• Large and growing prop/furniture library. Email us requests, we'll build them.
• Scene Freeze: Experiment easily by taking snapshots you can return to (Pro).
• PDF/JPG/Excel export and emailing of Camera Diagrams and Shot Lists (Pro).
• Unlimited Folder Structure for organizing scenes (Pro).
The Free Version of Shot Designer is full-featured except for Save and Export. Your current scene is always saved, and you can be fully productive working on one scene at a time. The Pro Version (in-app upgrade) adds File Management, identical Mac/PC Desktop Version, PDF/JPG/Excel Export, Scene Freeze and more.

Although shooting a scene is fun, poor pre-production can instantly create 12 hours of extra work. You can avoid that by creating a storyboard for your scenes and even diagrams where the camera must be to have everything planned to the last detail. more2 years ago

There's a great difference between an 11 AM and 8 PM outdoor shot. Natural light, for one, could be completely absent in the latter. Planning everything well ahead is a good way to prepare for all eventualities. Shot Designer is a compact yet comprehensive solution. more3 months ago

App does more than anything else on the market
Feb 9, 2013 By SelectedStoriesNothing's perfect. But this app is invaluable as a teaching tool in my lighting classes. I can project the iPad screen and display, change and discuss lighting situations with students in class, before we move to setting up equipment. This saves valuable time and gets the students to think BEFORE they touch the lighting instruments. The animation tools are good, but could be less clunky. Also, can you add Google Drive as a option besides DropBox? more -
Apr 25, 2021 By david marshGreat update. All working and syncing again. Thank you. -
The Best
Jul 22, 2021 By BENGUTTERIDGEThis app is an essential filmmaking tool. I’ve used it on everything from commercials and short films to TV drama and it’s fantastic. Stable, intuitive, easy to use, easy to read for Crew to understand what you’re trying to achieve. Currently shooting a high end tv drama and sending out my floor plans to all the crew weeks in advance so when we rock up to set everyone already knows what we’re doing - saving me so much time and energy to be creative. I create a Dropbox with pdfs of the plans and constantly update it so the crew always have the latest versions. Also the response from customer service etc is fantastic. Honestly, couldn’t work without it now. more -
Apr 8, 2021 By Omar Al-TaherIt needs UPDATE! I have the Windows version and it works, but I can't sync my data on this android version! This suck, specially when you buy the pro version but it still won't work. I love this app but, come on Hollywood Camera Work! more -
Best Tool for setting Scenes and Shots
Aug 10, 2015 By TsetsohI've been using this app for several weeks now, and I have been very impressed with every feature. Setting up a shot (or several) is very easy and intuitive. All the built-in cameras, lights, characters, and props make this a quick solution. The integrated shot list keeps us organized. I have synced across two iPads and an iMac. As a novice film maker this app was an excellent teaching tool for me. Its integration with all facets of building shots, and the shot list helped me understand and build in the right way. I'm not certain what a previous reviewer was complaining about but it has done every thing it claims to do. Another plus is the outstanding support from Hollywood Camera Works. When I needed assistance a post on their forum got a very rapid response, and all the follow-up I needed. more -
Incredibly useful
Nov 25, 2016 By Sam GrafI hope the developer did not abandon this app. It's an incredibly portable and powerful way for a filmmaker or director of photography to work out scene ideas. It helps amateur filmmakers take their craft to the next level. Sometimes spontaneity is the right way to go, sometimes careful planning, especially of something more complex than "selfie" videos, is the right way to go. Shot Designer is an invaluable tool for the latter. Thumbs up all the way. (BTW, the tutorial videos are all there, lower down on the page.) more -
Apr 13, 2021 By Steve Brooke SmithRoom for improvement but otherwise excellent. I can see it being the industry standard. -

Hollywood Camera works is the best.
Oct 28, 2012 By Ramyg4cI am an old fan of HCW, and learnt a great deal from their video tutorials. Being using their illustrator file that they included with their course to block my moves. This app is great, well thought of and having it on all devices is awesome. I am sure updates will bring great features an that is why I believe the $20 spent on the pro version is a wise investment. A couple of things that will make it more awesome. Undo and the ability to use iCloud to sync boards on all devices. more -
Feb 20, 2019 By Peter DimakoNeeds some updates and more items. This has not had a single new item added to it since its launch. It's still my go to app, but still, some new items would be extremely useful and welcome

Very Disappointing
Nov 7, 2014 By Maverick ProducerI’ve given this a good run and am actually quite disappointed (especially now that I spent $20). Here are few of the biggest issues. 1: It would be nice to be able to duplicate an entire scene. If multiple scenes take place in the same location, then every time you want to make a separate scene you also have to build the “set” from scratch. I would like to be able to copy the entire set and drop/paste it into a new scene. 2: The idea of “pages” seems great on the surface but when you only have 5 pages available to you, it becomes a dud very quickly. I can keep adding to this list. You are so limited by functionality. more -
Oct 15, 2018 By Andrew AppelleHave used this program before on Mac and loved it. Trying it on a chromebook and can't click anything.... quite dissapointed. -
Nov 2, 2020 By DutssZThe UI is so broken I couldn't tap a single button, maybe the app is good if only I could pass the title screen -
May 4, 2019 By Rich StaatsAlready own it, but it errs out when trying to sign in. very disappointing. -
Jan 28, 2020 By Potato Facesad that the dev gave up on this.. hope he's ok. this should be totally free if its never going to be updated. -
Dec 16, 2020 By Abdelilah AchakThe app crash when I try to sync! -
Not supported any more?
Aug 7, 2016 By EcmprojectThis is a wonderful app if you are using iPhones and cameras from 5 years ago. As far as I can tell now the app isn't really getting support outside of software updates and glitches. The field of views on the camera are basic and don't include a way to switch between sensor sizes on any modern camera, the aspect ratios are limited, and the last version of the phone in their list to match field of view is the iPhone 5S. Other than that it's a great diagraming app. more -
Nov 5, 2020 By Brandon FloresI can't sign up. The ui is broken. -
Mar 5, 2021 By TANGOPOP filmsDont lose your time or money, this apps doesn't work at all.

Powerful tool!
Mar 18, 2013 By Mr.UnknownThis is on incredibly handy and powerful tool for anybody that works with video, photo, set, and or lighting. Having the power to storyboard scenes and movements of actors, crew, equipment, and set elements in a simple two-demential plain is beyond useful, and all from a program that fits in your pocket (iPhone), or in your bag (iPad). The directors viewfinder is an added bonus, even though it is limited by the fixed lens on the iPhone\iPad, still gives you completely usable information. more -
Excellent!
Oct 31, 2012 By Chris_JJFirst of all, this is a great, simple and useful application. View their short tutorials to see if this app is right for you. Beside the great functionalities of this app, I'm equally impressed by the other "elements" including the tutorials, the amazing support and the license that allows you to use it on all your devices, laptop included. This is a role model for any app. I rarely see this level of dedication and "doing the right thing for the customer" in many other app. Congratulations to the company behind this. more -
Clarity
Jun 22, 2013 By 'Bu SurferA lot of thought went into the software app to utilize current technology and make it as easy as possible while providing significant value to the finished product. Best way to put your plan and ideas into a visual format that can be understood by those involved. Provides a way for the shot designer to work through a plan to shoot the storyboard and to be able to share it quickly, clearly and easily. Best solution available! more

Oct 7, 2020 By Jonny GageIt's alright but the layout on the screen is kind of clustered. Needs more space for android at least! -
Great, but sometimes sticky.
Mar 1, 2013 By JvanallenOverall it's a great app for being free. Really helps visualize what shots you want especially with the playback feature that moves through the shot for you. But it sometimes slows down and does stuff you didn't press or doesn't do what you did press. Definitely not something for very quickly designing shots as you can get very detailed, but if you keep it simple then it works. more -
Apr 28, 2019 By Jack BybeeAs an "Old School" director, this seems to have just what I need to display to Cast and Crew. -
The Best Ever
Nov 28, 2012 By Ice2gofirstAs a new filmmaker and director the one thing I struggled with the most was shoot design and setting up the master. Being able to play around with the animation and different setups in realtime as they would unfold has change the way I plan and has cut the process of guessing into facts of what will work and what wont work. Great App. more -
Aug 7, 2019 By Ramesh PrabhuLoved the app (yet to upgrade to #pro), does the upgrade come with a validity/is it for lifetime? -
Only wish pro version was about half the cost!
Jul 9, 2013 By Spectre KnightGreat app! Takes a little to while to learn how to use but well worth your time! Awesome tool for planning your film! Can't wait to see what next from these folks!

[IMPROVEMENT] Changed used of word "Crash" to "Error" because it's less alarmist. Your data is almost always safe.
[BUG] Fixed error when deleting last control points via context menu.
[BUG] Fixed Edit Caption error on Storyboard frames.
[BUG] Fixed issue with Scene Freeze and Undo not properly deleting objects.
[BUG] Fixed Wall Tool issue when creating first point slowly, causing premature auto-save.
[BUG] Fixed error when loading JPG files with corrupted EXIF camera data.
[BUG] Fixed scrolling issue in Shot List exhibiting problems on iPhone.
[BUG] Fixed issue regarding the Wall Tool that could cause a crash under very specific circumstances. A decimal error could result in mathematically illegal numbers.
[BUG] Fixed issue regarding using Shot List -> New Shot on iPhone.
[BUG] Fixed issue that could happen when first segments of new Wall were drawn too fast.
[IMPROVEMENT] Removed panning for in-between cameras on a track. It was annoying when tracking back and forth on the same track. A better system for panning while tracking is coming soon.
[IMPROVEMENT] Camera Roll on iPad now appears in the correct location.
[IMPROVEMENT] Increased the maximum number of control points in lines (Walk Arrows, Tracks, Walls) to 40 instead of 20.
[NEW FEATURE] Walls now have the ability to turn Grid Snap on and off, which makes tracing background drawings easier. Look in the context menu for Walls, next to "Soft Curve".
[NOTICE] Switched version number to 1.1 for technical reasons, even though the above is a very small update.
