Currently scouting locations requires a suite of tools

From taking the photos at the location to sending the location information to a team, a location scout may have to use at least three tools.

Camera rolls full of
forgotten locations

Many creatives rely on their phone and memory to save locations resulting in camera rolls full of lost spots.

Goal 1

Give users the ability to save locations with as much info as possible

Goal 2

Allow users to organize and easily find saved locations

Goal 3

Give users the ability to easily share locations within a team setting

Prototyping

The feedback from testing my protoype was very positive. It also taught me that many photographers and videographers are unaware of existing location scouting apps.
