Places & sets

Standing sets, swing sets and locations.

Places are real records, not text in a heading. Scenes point at them, so the breakdown and reports can tell you which sets carry the season and which appear once.

What it does

  • Each place has a kind (standing set, swing set, location), INT/EXT, a description and a mood
  • Scenes link to places, so renaming a place renames it everywhere
  • Breakdown and Reports count scenes per set

How to use it

  1. Places → add a place
  2. Pick it in a scene's Place field on the outline
