MAPP by DECS 4+

Saved me a ton of time after I signed up since it kept my information and transferred when I moved shows. Pretty cool. Just have to get through the initial sign up and I was all set. Faster and easier then paper!

Overall the app isn’t bad. It’s easy to do logs on the go but two things are bothersome…
1) time restraints prevent you from completing logging. For example; come mid-day Sunday I go in and want to mark “Off Duty” for the weekend and can’t until after midnight because technically Sunday isn’t over! That should be overwritten when logging off duty.
2) often times production shoots at night and we will continue to work past midnight. So still to this day, I can’t figure out how to complete a shift that carries through to the next day, especially when I clock in later that same day on my next shift.
Lastly, those of us in the movie industry weren’t required to log when remaining within 100 miles of production, so why are we even doing these now?

This site was made up to create more bureaucracy in the motion picture industry. These made up positions of DOT coordinators are a joke. These people don’t even have a commercial license and yet they are supposed to be specialists. Even better is that they don’t even keep you on file so every job that you do with the few companies that require it you end up having to fill out the same info. Don’t even get me started on the fact that they aren’t union members. Also, per the state and DOT regulation says with in 100 miles radius we are not required to do logs!
