THE STOP-MOTION PRODUCTION BINDER

Hold the frame.
Keep the thread.

The setup you made today should still make sense tomorrow. FrameBench keeps shots, physical continuity, checkpoints and shoot-day notes in one deliberate workspace.

THE WORK BETWEEN FRAMES

Stop-motion continuity is physical. A moved light, a changed pose, or a missing prop can undo a careful shot. FrameBench is built around the handoff from plan to setup to resume—not a generic task board.

01 / WORKFLOW

One production.
Every small decision.

01 — PLAN

Know the next shot.

Structure productions into scenes and shots. Keep the action beat, framing, movement, target frames and next action close to the work.

02 — SET

Record the physical world.

Save camera settings, lighting, marks, puppet and prop state, photos and audio cues as a checkpoint you can actually return to.

03 — RESUME

Compare before rolling.

Put the current setup beside its checkpoint, work through differences, and track issues or pickups instead of trusting memory.

04 — RUN

Close the shoot day.

Log takes, manually entered frames, corrections and notes. Export a day report when the team needs a durable handoff.

THE CONTINUITY DESK

Before. Now.
What changed?

Capture an immutable setup checkpoint, then compare it with a current reference. The visual record and resume checklist live beside the shot—not buried in a camera roll.

CLEAR ABOUT THE TOOLS

FrameBench records the shoot.
It does not control it.

Frame counts are manually entered or imported from CSV. FrameBench does not read a camera or capture application, verify image frames, or replace your production backup strategy. Data is stored locally unless you choose to export or share it.
