Shot List: Plan and track your video production shots
Organize scenes by location, add shot cards with types and durations, and check them off as you film.
Video production requires planning dozens of shots across multiple scenes and locations. Shot List lets you build a scene-by-scene plan with individual shot cards (wide, close-up, B-roll), each tagged with duration and a location color. As you film, you check off each shot and watch your progress bar fill. The app shows you totals—how many shots you have left, and how many minutes of footage you still need—so you stay on schedule and don't miss a take.
What it does
You create scenes, each tied to a location with a color tag. Within each scene, you add shot cards with a type (wide, close-up, or B-roll), a description, and a duration in seconds. A progress bar shows how many shots you've filmed. Tap each shot card to mark it done, or long-press to delete it. A header shows your total footage time and how many shots remain. Sample scenes come pre-loaded so you can see how it works.
