The apps you reach for
on set.
A growing suite of tools built around how filmmakers actually work — in the field, on location, under the sun.
Filmmakers set out to build the network that the film industry genuinely needs but hasn't fully found on any existing platform.
Create your profile, specify your title and area of expertise, add your showreel and website, and update your availability. On your latest feed, share your recent projects, post or discover job openings, follow event announcements, and directly message the profiles you like.
Producers, directors, directors of photography, art directors — everyone who builds the set together, all under one roof.
Pin locations, add photos and notes from your film projects. Organize by project and scene in folders. Share locations with your crew to add to their accounts. View distances between locations and create routes on the map.
Built by filmmakers,
for filmmakers.
These apps didn't start as business ideas. They started as problems we kept running into — on scouts, on set, in pre-production meetings where someone pulled out their phone and wished there was a better way.
checkthe.studio is a small, independent studio. No VC funding, no product roadmap driven by investor decks. Just tools we wanted to exist, built carefully, and put out into the world hoping they're useful to other filmmakers too.
If something doesn't work the way you'd expect, or you have an idea for something that should exist — reach out. This whole thing started with us noticing a gap. It can keep growing the same way.
