TheTakes Enables Filmmakers to Manage Projects in the Cloud
(PRWEB) November 06, 2013 -- TheTakes (http://www.thetakes.com), a SaaS company, announced today public release of its new Project Management and Collaboration tool for Film and TV Production, the simplest way to optimize video production costs and execution time-frames by using modern, cloud-based approach much needed within the industry.
Traditionally a Film/TV production process is complex and costly. With hundreds of people working on the set and frequent changes the cost of a mistake may be very high. TheTakes integrates all tasks of pre-production and production stages of filmmaking, including managing the film crew, breaking down the script, storyboarding, working with actors, locations and resources, creating a production board, making reports and much more. It provides a single update point for the whole team, allows setting and managing tasks in the best possible way and a prompt reaction to changes.
"My favorite feature of TheTakes is Automatic Scheduling," said Maxim Antonov, Co-Founder of TheTakes. "We automatically build Production Boards based on locations, actors, contracts, costs, availability calendars and 16 other criteria. TheTakes helps filmmakers to create a perfect plan the way only a real planning genius could do in the past."
Integrating information from different stages of Film/TV production TheTakes offers producers and directors exceptional control over the process.
Dozens of movie professionals from the US, UK, Russia, Germany, and France were interviewed at the system development stage. The main focus was to find their painful points and extract their problem-solving strategy that was afterwards incorporated into the system's logic.
"TheTakes is flexible enough to fit any project's workflow and so easy-to-use that updating TheTakes is much quicker than updating an Excel document," said director Andrew Zeleny.
