Ones of the most useful filmmaking apps
As a cinematographer, Shot Designer is by far one of my most used apps. Easy to use, and great tool for communicating shots and lighting plans with my team. I have been using it from the its early days, and so far, I haven’t seen a better alternative!
Always crashing
Paid for the pro version and very dissatisfied.
This app worked well for the first year but now in 2022 it crashes all the time and is virtually unusable.

What Happened?
Great tool I always use but recently there has been a glitch in the app where it doesn’t fill up the whole screen! Please fix!
The Best
This app is an essential filmmaking tool. I’ve used it on everything from commercials and short films to TV drama and it’s fantastic. Stable, intuitive, easy to use, easy to read for Crew to understand what you’re trying to achieve. Currently shooting a high end tv drama and sending out my floor plans to all the crew weeks in advance so when we rock up to set everyone already knows what we’re doing - saving me so much time and energy to be creative. I create a Dropbox with pdfs of the plans and constantly update it so the crew always have the latest versions. Also the response from customer service etc is fantastic. Honestly, couldn’t work without it now.

It is a great app but needs an update!
I use it all the time despite its outdated user interface. I really hope they rewrite the whole app and modernize it, because it’s really a super efficient way to make quick shot lists and lighting plans. I would be ready to pay for a new version!
Tip Top for preps
I have been using this email since many years now, after it has been highly been recommended by our camera teacher who works with haneke. After getting a new computer I had to manage my account - the customer service was excellent. I'll be using Shotdesigner many more years.
App does not work, terrible customer service-don’t buy
I an unable to save my design to my phone. I was also unable to create an account through the app to get the desktop version. I am a film student and 4 other students in my cinematography class had the same issues.
Great
It’s a very great tool to manage and prepare scenes for cinematographers. My only hope is that they continue to improve the tool box and add more material.
Not functional
This app is no longer supported and is not functional. I would not trust them with your payment information for the full version. Missing functionality. Cannot register with them - UI bug prevents it. Very glitchy
10/4
Good app
