You’re not disorganized.
You just never learned the system PROS USE to plan a shoot.

The Problem is...

Most cinematographers think they just need more reps, better gear, or another YouTube tutorial to finally “feel like a cinematographer”

But the Truth is...

You don’t become a trusted cinematographer—the kind that walks onto set calm, prepared, and in control—by throwing together a shot list the night before and hoping it all clicks.

You get there by learning how to:

‣ Reverse-engineer the look of your shoot before you scout‣ Build a story-aligned visual plan you can actually follow‣ Prep lighting, shots, and crew in a systemized, repeatable way‣ Communicate your vision clearly and lead—even when chaos hits‣ Show up confident, collected, and ready for anything

In other words…

You need to install the system real cinematographers use to run real sets—without second-guessing, scrambling, or starting from scratch every time.

That’s what this playbook is.

This is the exact system we’ve refined over 5+ years of running $100,000+ shoots at Tenfold Production—whether we had a full crew… or none at all.And now, we’re finally handing it to you.Which is why we’re SO excited to launch this.

Because the Truth is

You already have the eye.
You just need the plan.
