Lightplan vs Softbox Atlas

Lightplan is a lighting notebook for photographers. Draw the setup, tap twice on set, and the frames file themselves under the diagram that made them. WHY A light setup lives for twenty minutes and then it is gone. Phone snaps of the stands never tell you the distance, the height or the power, and by the time a client asks for "that look from March" the plot is unrecoverable. Lightplan keeps the diagram, the gear list and the frames that came out of it in one place. DRAW - A floor plan with 55 built-in gear types in 8 categories - strobes, softboxes, umbrellas, snoots, flags, backdrops, grip and power - each drawn as its own symbol, plus any custom gear you add - Light cones show where the light actually falls, not just where the stand is - Distance, height and power on every light, and a gear list that reads like a call sheet - An idea note for the one sentence you would say to an assistant RECORD - Tap Start when a setup goes live and Wrap when you strike it. Two taps per setup, not one per frame - your hands are on the camera - One large target that works one-handed in a dark studio - Frame ranges with a live counter; correct the start or the current number at any time - "Wrap up" ends the day; "Wrap - next setup" rolls straight into the next look FILE - Import the shoot from your photo library and each frame lands under its setup - Two channels: capture time is the main one, so no numbers are needed at all, and frame numbers verify it - When the two disagree nothing is filed. A wrong diagram is worse than none, because you would light a reshoot from it. Those frames wait in Unfiled for one tap - Aperture, shutter, ISO and lens are read from EXIF and shown beside the light that made them - Photos are never copied, modified or uploaded.
