| Movie Magic Budgeting | DOS, Windows, Mac | Info
Version 5.0 What's so magical about Movie Magic? Everything. Movie Magic isn't a spreadsheet template or a simple database program - It represents a major leap forward in budgeting software technology. It offers innovative solutions to complex "What if?" budgeting problems, and was designed by veteran production managers and Screenplay Systems, a company with a proven track record in entertainment software development. Movie Magic's on-screen presentation makes budgeting a breeze because it looks like a budget. Movie Magic's displays are non-technical and uncluttered, designed to be used by filmmakers, not computer programmers. Power if you need it, simplicity if you don't. Movie Magic has every feature the professional estimator requires - built into a program with renowned ease-of-use. The Master of Detail With Movie Magic, every account can have up to 300 lines of detail. That's five pages of detail per account - enough for the tough accounts like Transportation, Set Construction and Cast. Each line of detail fits neatly in one line on-screen, and with our Summation Detail and Subtotal features, you can kiss separate detail pages good-bye! Database of rates With our Library feature, you can build your own customized rate books. Entire accounts can be pre-designed and stored in the Library for instant recall. Easily move entire sections of detail between accounts - even between different budgets. Another reference of rates worth investigating is the Industry Labor Guide.
