Lucerna is a native macOS application that covers the full arc of a film production, from the first word of the script to the last shooting day. It combines a live Fountain editor with automatic production tools: breakdown, stripboard, shot list, call sheet, budget, scouting. Everything is derived from the script itself. Write a scene, the breakdown updates. Move a scene in the stripboard, the schedule reflects it.
