How can we help?
CelCue is a paid-once, offline X-sheet and animation-timing planning workspace for iPhone and iPad. It requires no account, subscription, network connection, production media, or external hardware.
Create a scene plan
Create a project and scene, choose 12, 15, 24, 25, 30, 48, or 60 fps, set the scene length, and add character, effects, camera, background, or custom exposure columns. A fictional example project is included for exploration.
Plan drawings and holds
Add custom drawing blocks or generate runs on 1s, 2s, or 3s. The vertical X-sheet shows drawing changes and held-drawing notation frame by frame. Review every drawing label, range, and hold before production use.
Mark beats and actions
Add beat, dialogue, action, camera, sound, or note markers. You can generate a beat-marker track from a BPM value you enter. CelCue does not import, analyse, play, or synchronise audio or video.
Inspect the timing plan
Scrub or run the visual playhead at ½×, 1×, or 2× to inspect active drawings and cues. Rehearsal visualises the entered plan; it is not rendered animation, production playback, lip-sync, or delivery certification.
Review diagnostics
CelCue flags structural gaps, overlaps, out-of-range blocks, and long holds in the data you entered. These checks are review prompts, not artistic judgements or automatic corrections.
Export or back up deliberately
Share a summary or export CSV, readable timing text, PDF, or a CelCue JSON backup through Apple's system interfaces. JSON restore reads only a file you choose. Keep an independent backup and verify every exported or restored file before relying on it.
