Prepare

The breakdown

You upload your script; Soldum produces the full inventory, scene by scene: locations, roles, extras, costumes, props, vehicles, stunts, VFX.

• You correct whatever needs correcting, right in the table.
• A V2 comes in? Upload it: your corrections are kept.
• You filter by location, by character, by scene.

That table feeds everything else — the quote as much as the shooting schedule.

Casting

Soldum fills in each role's sheet from the text: age, gender, and a profile summarising what the script describes. Nothing is invented, nothing you typed is overwritten, and roles for minors are flagged.

It then proposes performers, verified against a public film database before being shown to you. You accept, you dismiss, or you enter your own idea. The confirmed performer's fee goes into the quote.

Crew

Start from the standard crew, adapt it, then fill each position. Soldum proposes profiles from its crew directory — fed by crew members themselves and by public filmographies — matched on function, availability and city. Every suggestion states why it is there.

Each engaged crew member's cost joins the quote, based on collective-agreement minimums.

Locations and logistics

Locations and studio, accommodation, vehicles, equipment, location management, post-production: for every need, Soldum searches, you compare, you confirm. A confirmed choice moves its cost from estimated to actual, and its address goes onto the call sheet.

• Request for quotes: your suppliers reply through a secure link, with no account to create, and you get comparable offers back.
• Already have your supplier? Enter them by hand; their price counts like any other.
• Accommodation is computed, not guessed: Soldum works out from the schedule who sleeps where and for how many nights, keeps the crew on a single base as long as locations are within an hour, accounts for the rest required by the collective agreement, and costs both single and double rooms. A map places it all.

Your team in the tool

You invite collaborators by email with a role — producer, director, assistant director, location management, crew, reader — that decides what each can see and change. Permissions can be fine-tuned module by module.

• Tasks handed to someone, with a due date and priority, tracked through four states. Soldum suggests some from your project: exteriors call for a filming permit, minors for a work permit.
• Messaging per project: group channel, private conversations, transcribed voice messages.
• Comments everywhere — on a scene, a budget line, a resource.
• Your organization's address book, shared across all your projects: your contacts follow you from film to film.
• The project log: who approved what, and when.
