Join ADG's 'Software Month!' During the session scheduled on Wednesday 11th February 2026 @ 13:00 PM we will explore Yamdu, a cloud-based production management platform mainly used in film, TV, and media production. It helps teams plan, organize, and collaborate across all stages of a production.
The webinar will include a taster and introduction into the software, offering a great opportunity to trial and evaluate its strengths in an ever competing landscape of software supporting Assistant Directors in the UK.
Yamdu centralizes everything needed to run a production smoothly—from early development to post-production—so crews don’t rely on scattered spreadsheets, emails, or PDFs.
Stay tuned for more information on the time, but for now save the date!
Yamdu offers a comprehensive cloud-based solution that helps First Assistant Directors manage the fast-paced demands of film, TV, and commercial Productions.
It simplifies the complex task of breaking down scripts, sharing information automatically with all relevant Departments. Our new AI breakdown feature provides an immediate full script breakdown an AD can review and confirm quickly. Yamdu also provides advanced shooting scheduling and call sheet functionality.
By eliminating the need for multiple disconnected tools and paper-based processes, Yamdu empowers 1st ADs to maintain clear communication, reduce errors, and streamline daily operations — helping them lead the production smoothly and keep the entire team aligned.
In the meeting we will discuss:
Collaborative Script Breakdowns
• Tag and organize elements (cast, props, wardrobe, etc.)
• AI script breakdown and synopsis options
• Assign responsibilities and notes per scene
• Ensure every department works from the same live, shared and
correct script version
Shooting Schedule + Call Sheet Tools
• Build and manage stripboards with dynamic links to scenes, cast,
and locations
• Plan and revise shooting days collaboratively.
• Instantly generate and share call sheets
• Track cast, crew, locations availability, with conflict warnings
