Why are we still using a computer like a typewriter?

In over a 100 years of film making we still do things the same way.
We type lists but take little advatage of what a computer can do.
It's time to up your game.

Recognise these daily pre-production problems?

  • Work lists made in Office or Pages need manual updating taking valuable time with rapid script changes.

    Industry Experience

    Built by and for Film & Television Pros

    We understand the Film & TV industry and its challenges. Our system helps you stay focused on what matters—your creativity.

    Intuitive

    Instant Set-up

    Upload your Film or Episodic script, and the system automatically extracts the Scene numbers, Sets, and Characters. Even a Scene description. No more wasted time on the basics.

    Work together

    Built for collaboration

    As soon as a script is released, production teams can start collaborating on it virtually. You always have the most recent version and can easily add to each other's task lists. On any device. Add photos, plans, and drawings that everyone can view and find.

    Web and apps

    Accessible on all your devices

    Our servers provide secure access to the show's data from any device or operating system. The data is synced in real-time on all devices, ensuring you have current and seamless access—no more closing a shared Movie Magic file or syncing a Dropbox folder between your devices.

    HOW WE HELP FILM & TELEVISION PRODUCTIONS COLLABORATE

    Work Faster and Smarter

    Auto-breakdown your script, collaborate, and get home on time.

    Seasons & Episodes

    Each script has its own designated folder and season, but all characters, set names, and other script elements can be accessed throughout the entire project. This reduces your effort in each new episode by reusing the same data. No more copy & paste.

    Script Import

    Cinergy quickly identifies scene numbers, sets, and characters, and automatically includes them in every script element. We even provide a scene description. This saves hours of time finding and collating scene data for work lists and budgets, and let’s you focus on your creativity.

    Break it down

    As soon as you open your script, you can easily create breakdowns for multiple departments. The data fields are carefully selected to meet the specific requirements of each department. Make work lists in minutes so you are always ready for the next meeting. Now you're in control and in the know.

    Collaborate

    Every team builds upon each other's work, and you save time. You can eliminate information blocks as your entire team will be in the know, even if you forget to share.

    We don't use complicated layers to share information. You don't have to use workarounds to get a task done. Organizing is simple and automatic.

    Photos & Drawings

    Finding the latest photo or plan is as simple as looking at the Script or Breakdown pages. This saves you time and keeps mistakes from being made with old information. End your constant searching through old emails or badly organized folders for that asset. With Cinergy it's right in front of you.

    Find it fast

    Cinergy is a comprehensive database that allows for easy searchability. Script elements are categorized by characters, scene numbers, and set names, enabling users to find and sort what they need quickly.

    Clearance Status

    End the searching through email or Dropbox folders to find multi-page legal reports for clearance issues. With just a quick glance at any script element, you can see if a prop or graphic is clear, which saves you time and endless frustration.

    Import Oneline Schedule

    It can be frustrating and time-consuming to rearrange your notes based on a constantly changing shooting schedule. However, with Cinergy, you can import your oneline PDF and have all your notes, lists, and script pages organized in shooting order. This can save you hours of time and ensure that you and your team are always working with the most up-to-date information.

    Script update transfer

    Script revisions come fast & furious. Revising your breakdowns every time a new script version comes out doesn't always happen- and when it does, it's often after work hours. With Cinergy, all annotations automatically transfer to the new revision. Changes are flagged, and characters, scene numbers, and set names are updated. Cinergy helps you get control of the chaos.

    Privacy

    Cinergy lets you write private notes in the script that can be organized by all the same scene, set, and character information you use for work notes.

    While sharing work lists is essential, we don't always want to share our first impressions and lists of questions. Until you do. You choose the level of sharing. A specific co-worker, your department, or the whole show. You control who can see it and when.

    Access Control

    Cinergy provides control over who can have access to scripts and project data. Currently, many productions still email scripts to everyone on the show and hope they don’t get shared. Additionally, work product is stored on individual computers or open Dropbox accounts, leaving approved work vulnerable to peering eyes. With Cinergy, accounts must be logged in to and show administrators and system users can assign access to scripts, plans, and photos.

    Make creating & sharing a breeze

    Break free of your department silo
    and see through the production chaos


    "Now that we are at the end of the show, we finally have a system down that works!”
    Sound familiar? Because it is so often the case in Film and TV production. When new teams come together, it takes months for everyone to step out of their departments and learn to work with each other. Cinergy can help you keep your work organized with searchable notes, plans, and photos all in one place. You can easily create, edit, and share your work with your team or the entire show. In turn, they share their work with you. Now everyone knows what's going on and you don't have to wait for the final Production Meeting to get on the same page. Your teams start collaborating from the moment your script is released.

    “I love this script app. It’s a really good simple idea that is so obvious it hurts. It’s so flexible, that people can make it as complex and rich as a production is willing to go. Other software is clearly made by ‘tech bros,’ and not industry folks. Cinergy just gets it.”

    "As an Art Director, I've been frustrated with the limitations of current tools. Annotations layered over scripts make it hard to search and extract data, requiring lots of time to gather info from various sources. There's definitely room for improvement. So we made Cinergy."
