Explore the demo production

A complete production — script, characters, scenes, script days and continuity — created in one click, owned by you, and safe to break. The fastest way to understand how the pieces fit.

An empty production tells you nothing. A populated one shows you how the pieces relate, which is the part that is genuinely hard to guess: that looks live on characters, that continuity lives on a character inside a scene, that warehouse items attach to both.

The demo is a complete production, created in one click.

It is really yours

The demo is not a read-only sample or a guided sandbox. It is a real production, owned by your account, with a real script broken down into scenes and characters, script days already worked out, and continuity attached.

That means you can do anything to it. Create things, delete things, merge characters, upload photos — none of it matters, and you can always create another. Break it deliberately. It is the only production where finding out what delete does costs nothing.

The dashboard

Opening any production lands you on its dashboard, and the demo is the easiest place to learn it. Every section has a card — script, characters, scenes, looks, warehouse, sets, schedule, team — showing what it holds. The cards are the map: if you are not sure where something lives, this is where to look.

The production bar

Along the top sits the production bar, which follows you everywhere inside a production. It carries the quick links to the sections you use constantly and the search, which covers everything in the production at once — characters, scenes, looks, warehouse items, sets and more. See finding anything.

Search is the fastest thing to learn and the thing new users discover last. Try it early.

A suggested ten minutes

If you want a route through rather than a wander:

  1. Open Scenes and mark one partially filmed, then fully filmed.
  2. Open a scene, then open a character chip inside it — that is where continuity lives.
  3. From the character, open a costume look and see its photos and details.
  4. Open the Warehouse and attach a prop to a scene.
  5. Use search to find the prop you just created, from somewhere else entirely.

That covers the relationships the rest of the app is built on.

The thing that is not obvious

Screenplay uploads are blocked on a demo production. The demo ships with a fixed script so its breakdown stays predictable, which means the script-related flows — importing a screenplay, handling a revision — cannot be tried here.

To practise those, create a feature film production and upload a script to it. Everything else in the app can be learned on the demo; those two need somewhere real.

When you are done

Delete it, or keep it. A demo costs nothing to leave lying around, and it stays useful as somewhere to test a workflow before doing it on a production that matters — which is worth more than most people expect once a real shoot is underway.
