Exclusive! Buckshot v3.3 released

One of the most relevant features in this version is that it now connects to your Google Drive to, for instance, create the folder structure for you, and it even offers a script for this called Buckshot v3.3 builder, which will be available for public use to assist you in building new projects for one week (until Mon14th of October 12pm PST) and after that you will have to wait for two months

After almost 1 year of hard work to reach v3.3, Marcus is not going to make any more updates. It´s your turn: "Now go make something cool!"

What does all this mean? Well, you better hurry up and get your own Buckshot v3.3 project now:

As Marcus says: "Make your life easier, and learn to use Google apps to manage your projects just like the big boys do. Here's my step-by-step guide on how you can set up your own professional project in just 12 mins.". For more information, I´d suggest you to see this video http://youtu.be/VgH0E3m1lH4

About Buckshot "This flexible project management system was built primarily to track 100's of assets in the visual effects industry. But it can actually be used for any type of asset tracking, for any industry" (from their Google community)

These are the tasks I have found more overwhelming, and the corresponding tools that might be to manage them: DEVELOPMENT. A lot of work has to be redone every time if writers, designers, etc. don´t use an adequate system. Celtx seems a very interesting tool to start properly with your projects. COORDINATION. Simply knowing who is doing what and how much is already done can be a nightmare, specially when you are not working full time on a project. The tool I find myself using more often is Google Docs & Spreadsheets . It allows several users to edit a shared spreadsheet simultaneously. It has some limitations compared to a full-featured spreadsheet ( or even compared to Excel ) namely conditional

PIPELINE: A simple projects manager for Autodesk Maya

A  producer of two graduation short films just sent me an email: "We all know how complicated Shotgun is:  I found this Maya-centric project manager that looks awesome.
