From ThinkCrew in the Cloud
to a Call Sheet for Every Day
Keep breaking down and scheduling in ThinkCrew. Export the schedule as a USS file, the open format ThinkCrew created, and G-Casper Pro drafts a call sheet for every shoot day from it: scenes, cast, elements and banners. When the board changes, export again and re-import. Your call sheet work stays where it was.
Two Tools From the Same Family
ThinkCrew was founded by Michael Williams, one of the original creators of Casper, the Excel call sheet G-Casper Pro grew out of. The layout you know from Casper is still the one on the sheet.
One USS file, every day drafted
A USS export carries the stripboards, scenes, cast and elements in one file. Pick the stripboard you shoot from, and every shoot day arrives as a drafted call sheet to check and send.
USS explainedRe-import when the board moves
Export a fresh USS file after a revision and run it through the re-import wizard. It shows the old and new schedule side by side and asks before it drops a day or renumbers cast. Crew calls you set stay put.
Schedule versioningCasper and G-Casper sheets too
Coming from a Casper or G-Casper Excel workbook? It imports directly: crew, cast, background, scenes and the call sheet data you already typed in.
Schedule importBack out as USS
Export the schedule and breakdown as a USS 1.1.0 file, stripboard and boneyard included, so the schedule can go back to ThinkCrew or on to any other tool that reads it.
Exporting to USSCloud to cloud
ThinkCrew runs in the browser and so does G-Casper Pro. Nothing to install, and the whole AD department and the production office work on the same show at once.
Working togetherOut to the crew
Once the day is right, each person gets their own call by text or email, with a private link that opens the sheet on their phone.

Questions
How do I get my schedule out of ThinkCrew?
Export it as a USS file from ThinkCrew and upload it on G-Casper Pro's Import page, on the ThinkCrew tab. USS is an open format, so no plug-in or account link is needed.
Is G-Casper Pro made by ThinkCrew?
No. They are separate products. The connection is history: ThinkCrew's founder co-created Casper, the Excel call sheet G-Casper Pro grew out of, and ThinkCrew created the USS format both tools read.
What if my show has more than one stripboard?
A USS file can carry several. The import lists them and you pick the one you shoot from.
