Shotgun

Shotgun is a new take on “production tracking”, providing access to critical and dynamic project information to everyone working on a project. Shotgun runs right in a browser, so all content is available to everyone on any platform and in any location.


Everyone has constant access to the latest project schedule, which can be filtered, sorted, and grouped and then saved off as live reports.



  • Create tasks and milestones, view and edit with interactive Gantt charts

  • Drill in to "Workrooms" for all the "Things" in your schedule, like Shots, Assets, Sequences, and more, to see how they are...

  • "My Tasks" page for everyone with an account

  • Track bid and logged time on each task, then see summaries

  • View task "roll up" summaries on reports for Sequences, Shots, Assets, etc.

  • Rapid task creation with customizable task templates

  • API hooks enable task related automation


  • The system is completely open, with a flexible python API that lets you quickly integrate into your pipeline.

  • Open Python API provides full CRUD access to all data

  • Tap into the event stream for event driven triggers

  • Special tools for integrating Asset Management and Code repository systems

  • Extend the UI with URL page and tab widgets


  • Shotgun is now in private beta.
