Tools of the Trade / Bento

« on: Dec 15, 2011, 12:12 am »

Has anyone used the program Bento for stage management? I'm in the process of going completely electronic (I know, I know, I've heard every argument) and I'm getting an iPad soon.

I've done some looking into Bento and playing with the Computer/iPhone/iPad apps at the Apple Store it seems like it could do the job.

Anyone have some first hand experience?

Has anyone tried this app recently? Has it improved any?

I called my second show from an electronic prompt book. Everything was on my computer and I'm using Word 2011 for mac. I had my Blocking in Comments then hid those and put my cues in to the right with text using underlines off to the right then typing in my cues. It worked very well for me. I wasn't worried about losing my script because my laptop was plugged into a surge protector, I had a flashdrive with my current script, my ASMs had a key to a locker with another flashdrive and it was also backed up to my campus' drive and my computer backup. I also had it open on my iPhone and another laptop very close to me.
