Real-time budget tracking & workflow management 

Resource management for VFX production

  • Track budget actuals and estimates in real-time.

  • Communicate with internal notes and artist feedback loops locked with permissions set by management.

  • Use built-in reports and offline backups to keep your production on schedule and stakeholders informed.

  • This robust VFX Management Platform brings resource management, scheduling, budget management and timelines together to ensure on-budget and on-time delivery. 

Custom Set up

Customizable fields and tags enable you to track and filter information that wasn't anticipated or varies between projects, making it easy to set up and modify tracking parameters as needed. Set up is fully custom and flexible to adapt to your preferred way of working.

Real-Time Timesheets and Tracking help you
stay on budget and on schedule

Bulletproof's timesheet functionality makes tracking a VFX artist's hours against specific shots simple. The time sheets accurately calculate overtime hours and give VFX producers real-time visibility into budget status. Standard time sheets can be exported for Cast, Crew and/or Entertainment Partners.

You can review each shot's current status, expenses, and remaining time to anticipate VFX overages and late deliveries.

Add better quality to the VFX shots on screen 

Manage your team with the Artist Feedback Loop where you can track notes and comments made on each shot.  A status history within every shot records significant changes that have been made. Set permissions for your artists so they can only view the notes they need to see.

Custom permissions

Internal notes can be made visible only to senior management by entering them into select fields. This allows management to track and communicate sensitive document information about vendor performance, artist challenges, or on-set issues. Custom Permissions can be set for vendors so they can only view their assigned tasks or see all the tasks for any given shot.
