Capture creativity with this revolutionary app designed for directors, choreographers and stage managers. Easily document choreography, spacing, traffic patterns, and movement for theatrical events and productions, as well as cheerleading and marching band formations. Create dynamic spacing charts, blocking books, and track the complex movements of all moving elements of a production, including details about staging and choreography. Already being used by numerous Broadway shows and national tours, every detail of StageWrite has been designed to make this task intuitive and simple for productions of all sizes, including marching bands and cheerleading

SIMPLE SET UP:
StageWrite's simple set up gives you all the tools you'll need to create your blocking book or spacing charts.

ACTOR ICONS:
Create a unique ACTOR ICON for each performer. Choose a shape, color, and text label for each performer. The icons are stored in the 'green room' until you need them on stage. With a simple tap you add the actor to the stage and then simply drag them into the correct position. When you place the actor icon on the stage, their position is automatically shown floating over the top of the icon (ie. SR11, Center, SL14), and automatically adjusts as you move the icon to a new position.  

STAGE DIMENSIONS:
StageWrite allows you to easily set the stage dimensions of your playing area. Draw structural elements (wings, proscenium, etc.) with our easy-to-use drawing tool. Or, if you prefer to to upload the designer's drawings, no problem. You can also choose to view the show from the audience's point of view, or from the performer's point of view.

SCENIC DESIGN:
With the StageWrite drawing tool, you can easily do-it-yourself and draw your own scenic units and platforms using the StageWrite catalogue of scenic elements, or you can easily import the drawings of the designer. Everything is scaled to your requirements and will be collected in the 'wings' until you call for them onstage.

SPACING CHARTS:
Now, you're ready to create dynamic and accurate spacing charts. Simply:
 - place the actors, set pieces into position for any specific moment in the show.
 - identify the cue line or section name for that particular moment, which is shown on the chart.
 - draw arrows to show the actor or scenic element's pathway and traffic patterns.
 - add notes, text boxes to describe any additional detail about staging, pathway, or choreography.
 - utilize the automatic chart numbering system, or enter manually, as you wish.
 - rotate objects on the chart for correct facing.
 - create duplicate charts

DUPLICATE CHARTS:
The most dynamic element about StageWrite is the ability to track the movement quickly, saving you hours of time. From one position to the next, most things on stage don't move, but you want to track those that do shift. Rather than re-create the entire chart again, simply hit "add duplicate chart" to add an exact duplicate of the current chart. Then, drag any of the moving elements into their next position, draw any arrows to indicate traffic patterns, and you've completed the next chart in a flash. You can re-order, go back and add detail later, allowing you to keep up with the fast-paced rehearsal.

SAVING AND SHARING:
Your work is automatically saved as you go. You can also save alternate versions of the show with a simple 'save as..' function. If you choose to, you can easily share your charts with other members of your team. You can:
 - Easily scroll through the charts by swiping from chart to chart, or jump to a different scene by viewing it on your iPad.
 - Save each chart, each scene, or the entire production as a PDF so you can print, share with dance captain, insert into your script, etc.
 - Send a PDF to the Dance Captains and swings so they can keep a copy on their iPad so they can review their tracks.
 - Create a back-up your charts on your computer each time you sync your iPad with computer.
