FREE CALL SHEET TEMPLATE
Build a call sheet the crew
can actually read, in minutes.
Storyflow is a free AI canvas where you build the call sheet next to the shooting schedule, scene list, and cast contacts instead of in a separate spreadsheet. Drop in the day, describe the shoot, and the AI drafts a structured call sheet you can refine and share with a single link. No download, no credit card.

Start from a ready-made template
Pick a board to see what you can build, then let AI fill it in. Every template is a real, editable starting point on the same infinite canvas.
Pre-Production
Pull the brief, script, shot list, and moodboard into one pre-production hub so the whole shoot is planned in one place.
What is a call sheet?
A call sheet is the single most important document on a shoot day. It is the daily brief the assistant director sends to cast and crew the night before, telling everyone where to be, when to be there, and what is being shot. A complete call sheet lists the shoot date and day number, the general crew call time and individual call times by department, the location with its address, parking, and nearest hospital, the scenes being filmed with their scene numbers, page counts, and day or night notes, the cast with makeup and on-set times, background and extras, meal breaks, weather with sunrise and sunset, special equipment, and the key contacts running the day.
Most crews build call sheets from a static template in Excel or Word, or inside a production management tool. The template gets the structure right, but it lives apart from everything the call sheet is drawn from: the shooting schedule that sets the call times, the shot list that defines the day's coverage, and the contact list for the cast and crew. Every change means re-typing the same information in three places and hoping nothing falls out of sync before the sheet goes out at wrap.
Storyflow takes a different approach. It is a free AI-native infinite canvas that runs in your browser, so the call sheet sits on the same board as the schedule, the scene strips, and the crew contacts it depends on. You add a day, describe the shoot or point the AI at your schedule, and it lays out a structured call sheet with the standard sections already in place. When a call time moves or a location changes, you fix it once on the board and the surrounding plan stays consistent.
Because the canvas is AI-aware, it holds the full context of your shoot day. Ask it to add a company move, push the crew call thirty minutes, or split the day across two units and it updates the call sheet without you rebuilding the layout. When the sheet is ready, you export a clean PDF for the crew binder or send a view-only link so everyone opens the same version, no printing and re-printing every time a detail shifts.
HOW IT WORKS
From shoot day to sent call sheet in four steps.
No template to format from scratch. The AI reads your shoot and lays out the call sheet.
01
Open a free canvas
Sign up in seconds, no credit card. Your infinite canvas opens in the browser with the standard call sheet structure a prompt away.
02
Describe the day or drop in your schedule
Type the shoot date, location, and scenes, or paste your shooting schedule. The AI works from whatever you give it and drafts a structured call sheet.
03
Refine the details on the board
Set call times by department, add cast and extras, pin the location map and hospital, and drop the scene strips right next to the sheet so nothing gets missed.
04
Share a link or export a PDF
Send a view-only link so the whole crew opens the same call sheet, or export a clean PDF for the on-set binder. Update once and the shared version stays current.
The call sheet lives with the rest of the day.
Schedule, shot list, scene strips, and contacts on one canvas instead of scattered across a spreadsheet, a PDF, and a group chat.
AI drafts the call sheet from your shoot details
Generate a first draft in seconds
Describe the shoot day or paste your schedule and the AI drafts a structured call sheet, with call times, scenes, cast, and location sections in place. Refine by prompting again, no manual formatting.

Call sheet next to the shooting schedule
Pull call times from the schedule
Keep the shooting schedule on the same board so the sheet's call times, scenes, and page counts come straight from the plan. Move a scene and update the sheet in the same place, no re-typing.

Location map, hospital, and parking pinned in place
Everything the crew needs to arrive
Pin the location photo, map, parking notes, and nearest hospital right on the sheet, with reference images and the day's shot list beside it. The crew opens one board and sees the whole day.

View-only links and a clean PDF export
Send it without printing five versions
Share a view-only link so cast and crew open the current call sheet without signing up, or export a print-ready PDF for the binder. Change a detail and the link stays current, never stale in an inbox.

BUILT FOR THE SHOOT DAY
A call sheet maker that connects to the whole plan.
Storyflow is an AI-native canvas, so the call sheet, the schedule, the shot list, and the contacts stay on one board instead of drifting apart in separate files.
Every standard call sheet section, ready to fill
Start from a real call sheet structure
Call times, scenes, cast, and locations: The board lays out the sections a crew expects: general and department call times, scenes with numbers and page counts, a cast row with makeup and on-set times, background, and the location block.
Weather, meals, and special notes: Add sunrise and sunset, weather, meal breaks, and special equipment or safety notes so nothing that affects the day gets buried in a message thread.
Key contacts and company moves: List the first AD, UPM, and department heads with their numbers, and lay out company moves in order so the crew knows where the day goes and who to call.
The schedule and shot list on the same board
Draw the details from the plan, not from memory
Call sheet beside the shooting schedule: Keep the day's schedule strips on the board so call times and scene order come from the plan. Reorder the day and the call sheet is right there to update.
The day's shot list within reach: Drop the day's shot list next to the call sheet so the AD and DP see the coverage and the call in one place, not a separate app.
Canvas-aware AI that keeps context: Ask the AI to push the crew call, add a second location, or split the day across units and it updates the sheet in place, keeping the sections you already filled.
Share once, everyone sees the same version
Get the call sheet to the crew cleanly
View-only link, no crew sign-up: Send a view-only link so cast and crew open the call sheet on any device without an account. Change a call time and the link shows the current version, not an outdated PDF.
Print-ready PDF export: Export a clean PDF for the on-set binder or production office, with the layout intact so the printed sheet matches what the crew saw online.
One board per shoot day: Give every shoot day its own call sheet on the same project board, so the whole schedule of days stays organized as the shoot runs.
From one call sheet to the whole production
The call sheet is one board in a bigger plan
Connected to pre-production: The call sheet sits alongside the script breakdown, storyboard, moodboard, and schedule, so the day's plan is never disconnected from the film it belongs to.
Reusable across shoot days: Duplicate a call sheet board for the next day and adjust the scenes, cast, and location, no blank template every morning.
Works for any format: Feature, short, commercial, music video, documentary, or branded content: the same structure adapts to the size of the crew and the shape of the day.

HOW WE COMPARE
Storyflow vs StudioBinder, SetHero, and Google Sheets.
A fair look at where each tool fits. Storyflow is the only one that builds the call sheet on an AI canvas next to the rest of pre-production.

Call sheets, answered.
What producers and ADs ask about building call sheets in Storyflow.
A complete call sheet includes the shoot date and day number, the general crew call time and individual call times by department, the location with address, parking, and nearest hospital, the scenes being shot with scene numbers, page counts, and day or night notes, the cast with makeup and on-set times, background and extras, meal breaks, weather with sunrise and sunset, special equipment or safety notes, and key contacts like the first AD and UPM. Storyflow lays out these sections on the board so you fill in the day instead of formatting a template.
