Gorilla 4 released

Jungle Software today released Gorilla 4, which the company claims is the first film production software specifically designed for independent filmmakers to help manage film projects. "Independent filmmakers require a dynamic and robust software tool that can handle the myriad of details that go into producing a film or video project," the company wrote. "Unlike traditional film production software, Gorilla's core features - film budgeting and scheduling - are joined by an array of modules that handle cast & crew, rehearsals, calendaring, locations, expenses, editing, film festivals and more." The latest release includes element linking, element blackout, colored shot lists, and the ability to attach cast as well as equipment to shots. Gorilla 4 also features more than 3,000 labor/union rates, and the ability to automatically send emails to contacts. The software is available at select Apple Stores nationwide as well as the Apple Store online for $200 (student edition), $300 (standard edition), or $400 (pro version). Gorilla 4 requires Mac OS X 10.2 or later.
