** making Call Sheets and Production Reports Fast, Easy, and Free**
script2Bit is a script conversion and scheduling software for film makers and producers.
We are building an automation tool for film makers and producers that creates scheduling agents from a movie script. This tool efficiently breaks down a script into components for use in creating call sheets, SMS, email notices and other vital elements of movie production.
Film makers often cite the biggest challenge in productions as building schedules from movie scripts. Our tool will reduce the manual data entry of call sheets, and will automatically notify cast and crew members when they are needed on set.
For example, you wrote a script: Titled Big Fish. See this sample project for a simple demonstration of how the script conversion works:
2. Start uploading or pasting your script into the nice looking interface:

So it's almost like 1-2-3, except with an addition of step number 4.
So, now you have cast and crew lined up ready to go for movie production and waiting for you to give them marching order. Here's the process to do that:
2. Select the script:

It super simple and fun, right? So, stop worrying and start creating, and let us do the heavy lifting. Let us know if you need other modules to help movie productions as well.
