At Filmustage, our mission is simple: take the pain out of pre-production so you can focus on creativity. Today, we’re thrilled to introduce one of our most ambitious updates yet — a set of features that makes Filmustage the most complete pre-production platform in the industry.

Here’s what’s new:

• Movie Magic Budgeting (MMB10) export – seamless industry-standard budgeting integration
• Next-Gen Storyboards – available now on all plans, with AI extensions coming soon
• Multi-Episodic Projects – manage entire seasons in one space

Also, Filmustage officially earned the TPN Blue Shield, a recognition of commitment to industry-leading content security. Plus, SOC2 compliance is in progress.

Let’s dive into what these updates mean for your workflow.

💰 Export Directly to Movie Magic Budgeting (MMB10)

You asked for it — and we delivered. The most requested budgeting feature is finally here: Filmustage now exports directly into Movie Magic Budgeting 10 (MMB10).

For the first time ever, you can move seamlessly from breakdown to budget without wasting hours on manual data entry. No other platform offers this — and it changes everything.

Here’s what makes it special:

✅ First in the industry – Filmustage is the only tool that exports AI-powered breakdown results straight to MMB10.
✅ Clean, accurate data – Sort your schedule, assign day breaks, apply fringes or AI-based calculations — then send it all directly to MMB.
✅ Professional-ready sheets – Get instant top sheet estimations plus fully detailed accounts with all your Filmustage breakdown data.
✅ Save days of work – Manual budgeting imports often take hours per project; now it’s one click.

Clean up your script breakdown results, sort your schedule, assign day breaks and you are ready to get your manual or AI-based automatic calculations exported.

⚠️ Note: To keep better data consistency with MMB, please apply fringes to details, not to accounts.

You will get all account estimations right on the top sheet and all your breakdown-based details with estimations in relevant Filmustage accounts. You can easily move details to different accounts if needed.

⚡ From script to professional budget in under 10 minutes. That’s not a dream — it’s the new reality with Filmustage.

Storyboards: Now Available on All Plans

Storyboarding is where creative vision meets production planning. And with Filmustage, we’ve reimagined what storyboarding software can do.

Unlike traditional tools that leave you juggling sketches and spreadsheets, Filmustage storyboards are fully integrated with your script, scenes, and breakdowns. That means when your script evolves, your boards evolve too — automatically.

Here’s what makes Filmustage storyboards unique:

✅ Connected to scenes – Auto-sync with your script, breakdowns, and schedules. Every update flows through your pipeline.
✅ Production-ready precision – Frame cards include camera, lens, lighting, VFX, and frame rate — so your boards aren’t just visuals, they’re instructions.
✅ Real-time collaboration – Share boards instantly with producers, DPs, and clients, and collect feedback without extra tools.
✅ Flexible exports – Generate PDFs, shot lists, or spreadsheets that every department can use.

And this is just the beginning. We’re bringing next-gen AI to storyboarding:

✨ AI Frame Generation (coming soon) – Automatically populate panels with scene-specific context.
✨ AI Image Generation (coming soon) – Turn text prompts or references into rich, detailed storyboard visuals.
✨ AI Video Scene Generation (coming soon) – Transform reference images into cinematic preview clips.

For the first time, storyboards aren’t just static visuals — they’re a living, connected, and intelligent part of your production pipeline.

🎬 Multi-Episodic Projects: Manage Seasons Like a Pro

If you’ve ever worked on a TV series or multi-part project, you know the pain: multiple script files, duplicated breakdowns, and endless manual work just to keep things consistent.

With our brand-new Multi-Episodic Projects feature, that chaos is a thing of the past.

Here’s how it works:

✅ Upload multiple scripts at once with simple drag & drop
✅ Filmustage automatically detects and organizes each episode
✅ Add prefixes & episode numbers automatically for clarity
✅ Smart duplicate filtering keeps everything clean
✅ Unified breakdowns, scheduling, and reports across the whole season

Instead of fragmented projects scattered across different tools, you now get one centralized hub for your entire season. From the pilot to the finale, everything stays neatly structured — giving you back hours of time while ensuring accuracy across episodes.

And we’re not stopping here — next-gen AI is coming soon to Filmustage with AI Frame Generation, AI Image Generation, and AI Video Scene Generation, making storyboarding faster and more creative than ever. Try the new features today and stay tuned for what’s next in the future of pre-production!
