Pro Slate turns your iPhone or iPad into a practical digital production slate for film, television, commercial, documentary, student, and independent productions. Keep essential production information organized and clearly visible on set. Configure the slate for a small crew or a full production, display running timecode, mark takes with an animated clapper, and create detailed reports for post-production.

Hide fields you do not need for a cleaner slate, or enable detailed camera and sound metadata for larger shoots. Your configuration and production information are saved locally so you can continue where you left off. TAKE LOGS AND REPORTS Each marked take can be recorded with its timecode and production metadata. Export all logged takes as a PDF production report or CSV file for sharing, archiving, and post-production reference. PRIVACY Pro Slate does not require an account. Production information is stored locally on your device and is exported only when you choose to share it. IMPORTANT Pro Slate generates display timecode using the device. Unless connected to and verified with supported external equipment, it should not be treated as a certified master clock or a replacement for dedicated hardware synchronization. Pro Slate is provided by Origin 51 LLC and created by Scott Welsch.
