Directors NoteBook software is a digital "project notebook" for television commercial directors that organizes all the information you need access to during pre-production, production, and post. It's like having a production assistant at your beck and call 24 hours a day to help you manage your projects and save time.
From imported storyboard images, efx plate images, location and set photos, casting specs, agency and client contact info, to all shot-specific details like action, camera directions, lenses and frame rates, screen time, blocking, and script, Directors NoteBook helps you gather and organize all the information you need.
Directors NoteBook 2 SA, now available for both Windows and Mac is a completely Stand Alone application (everything you need is included). Directors NoteBook 2 SA has all of the great features as the Pro version, but does not have the customization and multi-user collaboration capabilities
Directors NoteBook Pro and Directors NoteBook 2 Pro for both Windows and Mac allows complete customization abd networked multi-user collaboration (FileMaker Pro 5 or greater is required and not inluded for Directors NoteBook Pro, FileMaker Pro 7 or greater is required and not inluded for Directors NoteBook 2 Pro).

Share Directors NoteBook Pro on a Network, and use it as a multi-user collaboration tool with different access priviledges for each user. For example: a director in Beverly Hills can be working on his shot list, while a location scout in Paris is adding location photos to it, the ad agency in New York is viewing changes live, the production office in Hollywood is printing everything out for the Pre-pro booklets, and later, the colorist working on the dailies can view the director's color suggestions.
(Networking is not possible with Directors NoteBook 2 SA)

Create Shot Lists with a Click of a Mouse. Directors NoteBook can generate over 20 different printouts, boards and reports (all customizable in the Pro version): storyboards, shot lists, efx plate lists, shooting schedules, location diagrams, camera notes, etc. Even 3x5 cards.

Four Versions |
 |
 |
|
Directors NoteBook 2 Pro & Directors NoteBook 2 SA & Directors NotePad 2 & Boards Free Four Versions for Different Needs
|

|
Directors NoteBook 2 Pro is a more powerful and flexible version than Directors NoteBook Stand-Alone. Directors NoteBook Pro needs FileMaker Pro to run, and is completely open, so the end-user can create and modify reports, print-outs, and automated tasks. The Pro version also allows you to create a multi-user collaboration environment (FileMaker Pro Server required) with unique access priviledges assigned for each user.
Directors NoteBook 2 SA is a self-contained application (does not require FileMaker Pro) that has all of the great features in the Pro version, but does not have the customization and multi-user collaboration capabilities.
Directors NotePad 2 is a self-contained application (does not require FileMaker Pro) that is an "ultra lite " version of Directors NoteBook SA. It's built for amateur video enthusiasts who want to get the most out of their "digital hub"!
