Cinema tools
Frame, timecode and sun calculators.
Quick maths for your shoot. Values are for planning, so always check critical numbers on set.
Timecode calculator
Add or subtract timecodes and see frames and real time. Drop frame (DF) uses a semicolon before the frames.
Frames and seconds
Turn a frame count into timecode and time, or the other way round.
Slow motion
Shoot at a high frame rate and play back on a normal timeline.
Shutter angle and speed
Match a film look with the 180 degree rule, or work out the angle of your shutter speed.
ND filter
Stops, ND number and how much light gets through.
Storage and card time
Use the bitrate from your camera or codec specs (megabits per second). Real files vary a little.
Depth of field
Choose the sensor size, then enter the lens, aperture and focus distance.
Sun locator
Plan your light: sunrise, sunset, golden hour, blue hour and where the sun stands at any time of day.
