    Our production report template was created with the input of dozens of industry professionals. We made sure to include all the details you might need, including things like detailed, union-ready cast time logs and crew clock times, overtime, meal penalties, and more.

    Metrics matter. Let's put your data to work to get the maximum amount of insights! Our reports include useful metrics that help you track your progress over time. This includes things like shoot averages for the number of scenes and pages shot per day and daily vs average overtime hours.

    Did you work more overtime this week than last week? Did you average more pages per day this week over last week? Knowing which direction you're heading over time helps to identify problem areas or success trends.
