Technical breakdown & Scouting

Link your extra crew and gear to your screenplay.

COMING SOON
You will soon be able to import your PDF screenplay to pre-fill automatically the scenes details!

Todo lists

Delegate tasks to your team.

A shoot doesn’t organize itself. Assign tasks to each of your teammates and track their progress in real time. Create as many lists as you need and set deadlines to keep everything on track.

Checking off tasks—it’s the little wins that keep you going!

Digital framing charts

Throw away your magnetic arrows…

… or just keep them on your fridge.
‍
No more need to shoot these tedious framing charts with magnetic arrows during prep. Export pixel-precise framing charts in half a second directly from Crewmate as PNG, to send to your lab.

If you’re shooting with ARRI cameras, you can even generate the corresponding XML frameline files to import into your cameras - ensuring a perfect match between your frame on set and in post.

Save time, gain precision, and your lab will thank you!

Who we are

Meet our talented team.

Thomas Founder & iOS Developer

I am a camera assistant on feature films and TV series. When I’m not on set, I’m typing lines of codes on my computer—my favorite activity since my 8 years old. I released 3 apps that had their heyday on the AppStore, my last one being Camlist (2019), born from the meeting of my passions for cinema and computer programming, totaling over 10,000 installations worldwide.

Romeo Founder & Head of Sales

I’m Romeo, a movie buff with a knack for numbers. Over the past decades, I’ve honed my skills in the movie industry, forecasting box office figures and developing business intelligence tools for top studios. Now it’s time for us to make the pre-production easier and like my favorite director Christopher Nolan once said: « Breaking rules isn’t interesting. It’s making up new ones that keep things exciting. »

Dimitri Founder & Back-end Developer

I'm Dimitri, a seasoned Digital Imaging Technician and Video Operator in the film and commercial shooting sector. When the cameras stop rolling, I dive into coding, a hobby I've had since childhood. This blend of film knowledge and coding led me to Crewmate—a project that combines my love for cinema and programming. My aim? To make an essential tool for the film industry.

Vincent Lead Web Developer

I used to work as a camera assistant before shifting my career path to become a front-end developer. With a passion for computers since childhood, I now find satisfaction in crafting seamless user experiences through web development. Drawing from my experience in the film industry, I've honed my attention to detail and eye for aesthetics, ensuring that every pixel and interaction in my work feels intuitive and visually appealing.

Benjamin IT & Back-end Developer

Hey, I'm Benjamin, a camera assistant on TV commercials with a foot in the camera rental world. I’ve learned coding between shootings and I absolutely loved it. When I heard about the Crewmate project, I didn’t hesitate to offer my help. I’m now thrilled to be part of this team and create such useful tools for the whole film industry. My passions finally meet and I’m very delighted about it.

Jer Strategy Consultant

Hello, I'm Jer! With a strong background in audiovisual production, I have thrived in the TV industry and co-founded Barking Lions Productions based in LA. Simultaneously, I have been sharing my expertise for over 20 years at the "Lycée Carnot" in Cannes. It was during my time there that I had the pleasure of meeting talented individuals such as Thomas, Dimitri, Romeo, and Vincent - and I take immense pride today in supporting my former students and being an integral part of Crewmate. Harmony in collaboration orchestrates the symphony of achievement.
