The QuickShot Creator for Post-Visualization

Martini is an easy way to show and define yet-to-be-shot scenes with pre-made locations, backdrops, characters and objects.

See into the future and visualize your upcoming shots with Martini! Bridging the gap between your un-shot scenes and your final edit is faster and easier than ever. No more black slugs with text explaining what “shot goes here”: show that shot with the dynamic power of Martini and create a better final film.

Hundreds of Unique Shots
Choose from hundreds of pre-designed, pre-laid out shots. Use the shots as-is or edit them in the Composite Frame so you can get just the right look for your scene. Characters come Standing, Walking, Running, Sitting, Jumping, and Prone plus Phoning, Punching, Driving, Typing, and Lounging.

Great Looking Actors
Martini’s great-looking, pre-drawn actors populate each shot style. Add multiple actors to your scene, change their poses, and zoom them in and out on their own unlimited layers. Easily create shots with a wide variety of looks.

Never Leave Your Editor
Arrange frame objects, crop out what you don’t need, and zoom in and out of everything you want in your scene. Then, save your visual ideas right into your Avid, Final Cut Pro, Premiere Pro, or Vegas Pro timeline. Whether it’s a shot, a sequence or even a pre-composed multi-shot, you can quickly and easily bring those shots right into your project.

Location, Location, Location!

• Martini is packed with locations and backdrops so wherever your production takes you, Martini can develop a shot for you.

Using the My Locations feature, you can integrate those locations with Martini’s actors to be super shot specific!

Keep your composure.
