Script Breakdown
The Script Breakdown is a visual and interactive method of completing the traditional
breakdown. Clicking on a breakdown element then simply select the breakdown category
that the element belongs to.
Import Scripts
But the most revolutionary feature is the ability to import scripts from various
programs to automatically populate the breakdown and production board. Cinergy
imports scripts written in Final Draft, Script Thing, Screenwriter 2000, Scriptware,
RTF files and even plain text. After the automatic breakdown is complete, you can
continue to modify and elaborate on the breakdown data until you are satisfied with
the requirements.
Production Breakdown
Use the production board to organize scenes into your deisred shooting order, then
print Call Sheets and numerous other reports to support all your pre-production
needs.
Cast & Crew List Management
We have all struggled from time to time to search through our day planner or a stack
of sticky notes to find the phone number of one of the Cast or Crew. Cinergy helps
you to keep all of the Cast and Crew information organized by being able to access
the name, address, best ways to contact an individual, and other key information.
The Cast and Crew list is an excellent example of how Cinergy ties the entire
production together. The Cast and Crew information is accessible from the call times,
production board, breakdown sheet, and other areas. Cinergy makes your life easier
and your production more organized by giving you the information you need at your
fingertips in an instant.
Call Sheet Management and Printing
Cinergy give you the power to view the call times for the cast and print out call
sheet reports. Further more you can view, manage, and print reports for the shooting
time schedules.
The current list of forms that Cinergy Scheduling can print out are:

Production Report
The CINERGY BUDGETING module is designed to be intuitive, yet gives you the
power to generate budgets for the most demanding high-dollar productions. Template
budgets from major studios are included in the base package, or you can define your
own chart of accounts that corresponds to your company's accounting system. Create
equations, global variables, and fringes easily, giving you all the features necessary
to plan your production's budget accurately, professionally, and at the most detailed
level.
Use the Cinergy Labor Rate Browser to look up rates for each position, ensuring that
you have budgeted for the most current rates and fringes. Cinergy's Labor Rate Browser
includes rates for IATSE, Teamsters, DGA, SAG, AFTRA, AFM, and WGA, plus below-the-line crew
for Los Angeles, New York, Chicago, Florida and San Francisco. Search for rates by job name,
and automatically insert the rates into your working budget.
And if you're already using Cinergy Scheduling, pull information from the schedule directly
into the budget, creating a tight integration between your shooting plan and your financial plan.
