Bring your scenes to life with Cinestager — the ultimate AR previsualization tool for filmmakers, creators and storytellers. Cinestager lets you instantly block, stage, and plan shots using augmented reality. Place 3D Locations, add Mannequins, and explore your scene through a virtual camera that behaves like the real thing. Import your own USDZ sets, position Mannequins with precise height controls, and visualize complex staging with Human Occlusion, which blends real people seamlessly into your AR environment. Then jump into Game Mode to fly through your scene, experiment with lens choices, and scout shots from impossible angles.

Each image can also generate an automatic Map View, giving you a top-down blueprint of your shot — perfect for planning and sharing with your team. Whether you're prepping a film, designing a scene, or experimenting with visual storytelling, Cinestager gives you the power of a full previs toolkit right on your device. Plan smarter. Shoot better.
