Every Schedule at a Glance — Across All Productions

Dramatify's Company-wide Resource Booking is a powerful Production Resource Scheduling tool that helps broadcasters, production companies, and studios manage people across multiple projects. It is integrated with other parts of our Scheduling Suite, as well as other features from stripboards to call sheets and production reports.

From permanent staff to freelancers and talent, you can now see availability, avoid conflicts, schedule absences, and book directly — all in one system designed for film, TV, and video production.

Production Resource Booking gives company-wide, cross-production staff booking overviews

Why Resource Booking?

Traditional cast and crew booking tools focus on individual productions. But in a busy production company, people often work across several projects at once. Resource Booking gives you the bigger picture:

  • Cross-production visibility: Check who is free, already booked, or partially available.
  • Conflict management: Spot and resolve double-bookings instantly with visual warnings.
  • Absence scheduling: Plan holidays, sick leave, and time off in one place.
  • Company-wide clarity: Manage staff, freelancers, and talent from the same dashboard.

How It Works

Your project-level Cast Booking and Crew Booking remain your primary scheduling tools. But Resource Booking adds the essential company-wide layer:

  • View availability: Whether you need a video editor tomorrow or a production coordinator three months from now.
  • Book directly: Add team members to your production without switching tools.
  • Integrated time off: Absences entered once are reflected across all schedules and views.
  • Colour-coded clarity: Quickly understand full bookings, partial bookings, conflicts, and open availability.
Monthly view of the Production Resource Booking

Scheduling Made Simple

Three views for different needs:

  • List View: Monthly overview of all productions and members. Filter by project, department, or search for names.
  • Month View: Calendar-style overview of up to five team members at once.
  • Week View: Zoom in on detailed weekly scheduling for smaller teams or individual roles.

Each view allows quick booking, editing, or deleting of entries. Overlapping or conflicting bookings are clearly marked, so nothing falls through the cracks.

Managing Time Off

Absences, holidays, and sick leave are always scheduled in Resource Booking. Handy links from Crew and Cast Booking take you straight there. Once entered, time off automatically appears in every schedule view — ensuring everyone stays aligned across productions.

Connected Scheduling Across Every Workflow

Resource Booking doesn't work in isolation — it's deeply integrated with Dramatify's Crew Booking and Cast Booking tools, creating a complete scheduling chain from company overview down to individual shoot days.

When you book a team member in Resource Booking, that information flows directly into the relevant production's planning tools. Cast members' availability is checked during shooting scheduling, tracked in stripboards and running orders, ensuring each department always works from the latest information.

For cast and talent, Resource Booking integrates with daily cast scheduling, call sheets, and automatic stylist scheduling, so makeup and wardrobe teams know exactly who is working when.

The system also connects to time sheets, automatic catering lists, and daily production reports, reducing manual updates and the risk of errors.

By uniting all levels of scheduling — from long-term planning to on-the-day operations — Dramatify's Production Resource Scheduling gives broadcasters and large production companies a single, reliable source of truth for every person involved in production.
