Operational sequence

Follow the work from first move to final handoff.

Each stage carries the production record forward so the next team begins with the context it needs.

  1. Set up

    Open the project operating record

    Establish the project, production structure, people, responsibilities, working documents, and approval context the team will follow.

  2. Schedule

    Turn the plan into working time

    Coordinate schedules, locations, people, and dependencies while recording changes against the project.

  3. Call

    Prepare the production day

    Build and distribute call-sheet context so crew and responsible teams can follow the current plan.

  4. Track

    Record the work as it happens

    Keep crew context, timesheets, tasks, schedule changes, and operational follow-through tied to the day and project.

  5. Review

    Route creative and operational approvals

    Connect creative review, deliverables, comments, and approvals to the people and production context responsible for the decision.

  6. Close

    Resolve open work before closeout

    Review project health, outstanding tasks, approved time, deliverables, and downstream obligations before the production record closes.
