Powered by Fame OS
Three tools your last videographer didn't have.
Most crews hand over a drive and a link. Every Fame Crew shoot runs on our own software, so you can see what is happening before the shoot, find any clip after it, and approve edits without a single email thread.
- 01
Footage Log
Every clip from the shoot, organised and labelled, with the whole log searchable - and every clip transcribed, so you can find the moment someone said the thing by typing what they said. No scrubbing through hours of rushes.
Open a sample footage log → - 02
Shoot Status
One page per shoot showing exactly where things stand: crew confirmed, brief signed off, kit list, call time, payment status. You never have to email to ask what is happening.
See a live example → - 03
Asset Review Tool
Review every edit in the browser and leave comments pinned to the exact second. No download, no version confusion, no thread of timecodes pasted into email.
Try the review tool →
All three come with every shoot. There is nothing to set up and nothing extra to pay.
