Contacts
Overview
Each Breakdown Item may be associated with a contact that is responsible
for the item. For example, a Cast Item will be associated
with the actor chosen for the role. Locations may also be
associated with a contact.
Contact Jobs
Each contact in the production may be assigned a job.
The jobs are organized by department ("Talent", "Production", "Camera", and
so on).
In the contact list, you can also filter for a particular
job clicking the filter icon on the job column header.
NOTE: It is important that you at least assign the
Director, Producer, and AD jobs because these will be reported at the top of
the Call Sheet.
If one of your crew members has multiple roles, you can
either make a duplicate contact via copy-paste, or just set the job to their
most important assignment.
Importing and Exporting Contacts
You can import your current address book into the contact list.
First, make a "CSV" (comma separated value) file from Microsoft Address
Book, Microsoft Outlook, or your favorite contact manager. In
Microsoft Address Book, this is done by selecting "File | Export | Other
Address Book | Text File (Comma Separated Values)".
Then, in BFS, select "File | Import | Contacts", then select a CSV file to
import.
From BFS, you can similarly export your list of contacts to a CSV file
for use by other applications. Select
"File | Export | Contacts" on the main menu.
