FrameBench: Stop Motion

FrameBench is a production workspace for stop-motion animators who need to pick up exactly where they left off. Keep the shot plan, physical setup, continuity photos, shoot-day notes and next actions together—on iPhone and iPad.

PLAN THE SHOT Organise productions into scenes and shots. Set an action beat, framing, movement, target frame count and responsibility, then see what is ready, shooting, paused or needs a pickup.

RECORD THE SETUP Capture camera and lighting settings, set marks, puppet and prop states, reference photos, annotations and audio cues. Save checkpoints so the next session starts from a clear record instead of memory.

RESUME WITH CONFIDENCE Compare the current setup with a saved checkpoint, work through a resume checklist and record differences before continuing. Track open issues and next actions in context.

RUN THE SHOOT DAY Start and pause takes, manually enter frame counts or import a count from CSV, add notes, and prepare a shoot-day report. FrameBench does not connect to or control a camera or capture application.

OWN YOUR WORK Production records stay on your device. Back up and restore your data with JSON. There is no account required.

The free version includes the core planning, setup and resume workflow within its published limits. A one-time FrameBench Pro purchase unlocks unlimited productions, shots and checkpoints, full binder/day-report/CSV exports, and production template duplication. Purchases can be restored in the app.
