What's on a production-phase project

Production is the working-the-plan phase — you built the call sheets, locations, casting and scripts in pre-production, and now they are the live material you actually shoot from. Nothing new to set up here.

The tabs, in order

A production-phase project opens with a different tab order than the other phases: Overview, Call sheets, Locations, Casting, Scripts, Shotlist, then the usual set — Tasks, Documents, Notes, Budget, Quote, Timesheet and Activity (plus Chat if your workspace has the chat beta).

Call sheets come first on purpose — the day plan is what you open first on a shoot day. Shotlist is the hero tab for this phase: see Run the shoot with the production Shotlist for how the checklist and progress bar work.

What carries over

Call sheets, locations, the cast list and scripts are not copies — they are the exact same rows you built in pre-production, now open for the crew to work from. Adjust a call time, add a casting note, or tweak a scene the morning of the shoot, and it updates the one record the whole team sees.

What's not here yet

• Canvas — the moodboard is a pre-production-only tab. It does not follow the project into production.
• Deliverables — there is no kanban board yet. Each script is still a script; it becomes a deliverable card once you hand the project to post-production, and every script becomes one card. See Work the deliverables board.

Handing off

When the shoot wraps, advance the project with Start Post-Production — it collects a deadline, an assigned editor and notes before the deliverables board opens up. The full mechanics of moving a project forward or back are in Move a project to another phase.
