Be on set
before you're on set.

Place scanned 3D locations in AR, block scenes with mannequins, and test lenses — all before the crew arrives.
Scan it during your recce with a LiDAR app like Polycam or Scaniverse, or bring any USDZ model — even a set that only exists in Blender or SketchUp. Mark its floors once on import, and multi-storey buildings are just a tap away.
Choose from a comprehensive library of camera bodies and sensor formats. Configure prime or zoom lenses, set framelines, and save presets for your exact kit.
Choose from a range of mannequins in different poses. Adjust height, position and blocking. Use occlusion mode to place real actors inside your virtual location.
Every image capture automatically saves a top-down map showing camera position and actor placement for every shot. Share with your gaffer, AD and DP before day one.
From commercials to feature films — any production that needs to prep shots before stepping on set.
Show clients exactly what they'll get before the shoot day. Test compositions, blocking and lens choices in the actual location.
Compare focal lengths in your scanned location. See how a 25mm versus a 50mm frames the scene before you rent anything.
Use occlusion mode to block real actors inside a virtual location — ideal for complex moves or tight spaces.
Export top-down maps showing camera positions and actor placement. Your gaffer, AD, and DP are aligned before day one.
Scan once. Test endlessly from your living room. No need to return to answer "will this shot work?"
Fast turnaround, high visual ambition. Nail every setup in advance so you shoot confidently when the clock is ticking.
Designed by a filmmaker who needed it on set.
Switch between placing your scene in the real world or navigating freely in a virtual environment. Your setup stays intact.
Select your camera body, sensor format and framelines. Configure prime or zoom lenses and save custom presets for your kit.
Place mannequins in various poses and adjust height. Use occlusion mode to block real actors inside your virtual location.
Every image capture automatically saves a bird's-eye map showing camera position and actor placement.
Import scans from LiDAR, Polycam, Scaniverse or any photogrammetry app. Build a library of locations to reuse.
Built specifically for iOS. Previs in your pocket — on location, in the production office, or at home.
Mark a building's floors once when you import it, then switch storeys with one tap — the location and your mannequins move with it.
Save a location with its mannequins as a scene, and set it up again in AR or Game mode whenever you need it.
Your locations, scenes and shots sync between your iPhone and iPad through iCloud.
Available now on the App Store. iPhone & iPad. Built by a filmmaker, for filmmakers.
