Description
Experience Level: Intermediate
We are a casting agency who supply lots of extras for TV shows / films etc. Part of booking people is that we have to get each person on set with a signed 'payment voucher' or 'chits' as they are called in the industry. I have attached an example of our chit. What happens is that someone on set physically fills out one of these for each person, puts in all th figures then has to sign each one individually, give one copy to the extra and keep one copy for their own accounts. If there is 100 people its a big long time consuming job. Moving in to the 21st Century, we would like to create a 'chitless' system, where everything can be done quickly and easily on an laptop / iPad / iPhone (or any other device).
I have added a link here that gives you the idea of what we want. The below link is that of one of our competitors who already has the chitless system (we are basically copying the idea!)

The system needs to be able to be have a log in for each person who wants to use it. They (or us as admins) upload their own list of peoples names, email addresses, phone numbers, National Insurance Numbers, and addresses (they aren't all compulsory but should have fields for it) which is for their particular Production on a particular date. There will also be a call time option which the system will recognise by call time 8:00 for example. This can be uploaded either by the uploaded spreadsheet or added individually (or 'add to all').
Then, when people arrive on set, the user can just sign everyone in at the click of a button and can easily identify who has arrived and who hasn't. Anyone who hasn't - we can view their contact details so we can call them.
At the end of the shoot, when people 'wrap' again, the user can at the click of a button indicate that they have gone home and their working day has finished.
There will be lots of variables involved that the system works out how much we invoice for the person who has worked. For example, if their day rate is £120 for 10 hours (starting at 08:00) and finishes at 23:00, the system calculates that they are owed £120 (day rate) + £100 (5 hours overtime at £20 per hour) - Total Amount: £220.
The above is a basic example, but the £120 day rate, the £20 overtime rate, and any other rates (there will be others) will all be inputted in to the system and can be changed from shoot to shoot and can change between person to person.
This is the basics to it, but it might be that we find that we need to go back and forth a few times to get it working perfectly. We'll probably work out how things work / don't work and how we might need to add things in as we go along.
At the end after everyone has wrapped, there is an option to email a summary of everyone who has been on the shoot as a total invoice. There should also be an option of emailing all the individual cast details of their shoot - so they are emailed a similar chit to the one we use now (the paper one) - so they have a record of their shoot.
Hope this makes sense! Be good to know if you are interested in working on this. We would be looking to get this constructed quickly (like in the next week).
Thanks,
