Day out of days in practice
Each row is an actor and each column a shooting day. Standard codes are used: SW for start work, W for work, H for hold, WF for work finish, and T for travel. The report is produced from the schedule and tells production how many days each performer must be paid.
Producers read the DOOD to spot expensive gaps: an actor who works on day two and day fourteen may have to be paid or held for everything in between, depending on the contract.
Where it lives in CrewDesk
CrewDesk keeps the cast list for each project and the shoot dates on the calendar, which are the two inputs of a day out of days. The report itself is attached to the project as a document.
