Who it's for

Episodic production

An episodic team needs to see which package belongs to which production project while several dates are in flight. Projects carries the film or episodic production identity. Each work package links to that project, has one owner and groups its tasks and shoot days. The owner can work through the package rather than relying on a calendar label alone.

How Film Production PM is set up for you

Production identity

Use project code and organization to distinguish similarly named work when the team opens several packages.

Package ownership

Set the owner and due date on each package so overdue task work has a clear person to contact.

Call sheet revisions

Keep the revision on the shoot day and submit it for the review step the team agrees during setup.

Evidence trail

Attach supporting files to the package and agree where to capture a reviewer reason for the package source revision.

An episodic team needs to see which package belongs to which production project while several dates are in flight. Projects carries the film or episodic production identity. Each work package links to that project, has one owner and groups its tasks and shoot days. The owner can work through the package rather than relying on a calendar label alone.

Select an existing production company or set one up, then create the Projects record the team will use for its first operating cycle. Prepare two packages with different owners and due dates. Add tasks whose planned hours can be checked against the package budgets. Create a shoot day for each package, give each day a recognizable location and revision, and have the reviewer inspect one submitted day. Use the Operations Overview to see how the same production appears in package health and task-hour comparisons.
