Give every artist a clear daily worklist
Every morning, WebRun opens Vani Software, reads which shots and tasks each artist is assigned today, writes a tidy per-artist plan into a Google Sheet, and posts each artist a short worklist in Slack, so the whole team starts the day clear on what they own without a coordinator building the list by hand.

How do I give each VFX artist a daily worklist automatically?
WebRun opens Vani Software every morning and reads each artist's assigned shots and their stages. It writes a tidy plan into a Google Sheet and posts each artist a short worklist in Slack, flagging due-today and blocked shots, so the whole team starts the day clear on what they own without a coordinator building the list by hand.
- Every artist starts the day knowing exactly which shots to touch
- Blocked shots are flagged so nobody works on something that cannot proceed
- Coordinators skip building the daily list by hand from live Vani Software data
Built for VFX coordinators · animation production managers · studio team leads · post-production supervisors

Questions, answered
Does it change any assignments in Vani Software?
No. WebRun only reads assignments and reports them. It never reassigns a shot or edits Vani Software, so your production plan stays exactly as your coordinators set it.
Can each artist see only their own worklist?
Yes. WebRun can direct-message each artist their own list in Slack, or post a grouped summary to a team channel. You choose whether the worklists are private or shared.
What about shots blocked by a missing asset?
Blocked shots are flagged right on the worklist so the artist does not start work that cannot proceed, and the coordinator can see at a glance which dependencies are holding people up.
