Scenic

Local scene planning software made by some friends at Squid Productions to help you explain the vision before the shoot.

Build a set, block your talent, place your cameras, and shape the light. Keep It Simple Stupid.

Mac: Apple Silicon or Intel, macOS 13.3 or later. Windows: Windows 10/11, 64-bit (x64). One complete offline .exe installer; no separate runtime downloads.

These builds are not Apple-notarized or Windows code-signed. macOS may require first-launch approval; Windows may show a SmartScreen prompt.

The space before the shot.

• Decorate sets with searchable props, furnishings, doors, windows, and lights.
• Plan in feet and inches. Snap doors and windows to walls.
• Record movement marks for talent, cameras, and lights, then play the whole scene.
• Preview lighting, RGB fixtures, sunlight, and window curtains.
• Keep multiple productions and export maps, shot lists, and portable project backups.

Projects stay on your device. No account or subscription. Lighting previews are an artistic 2D approximation.
