Gorilla overview
Gorilla is a suite of software tools designed to assist the creative individual in making a film, or a video. From pre-production through production to post-production, Gorilla contains everything the filmmaker or videomaker needs to make a movie. Let's start with your character list. Input them all into Gorilla and start attaching possible actors to the characters, complete with photos. Then work on your crew list. When you are done with that you need to break down the script. Then schedule your shoot days, set call-times, enter your props, and wardrobe and special effects. When you are done you can print out reports and call sheets.
Ready for your budget? Enter the Budgeting module and start entering numbers. When you are done scheduling and budgeting your project, move on to figuring out how much money you are going to make using the Distribution-of-Profits module. Gorilla also has a complete calendar and datebook to enter your location scouts, rehearsal schedules with your actors, and other meetings. When you are ready for post, you can enter all your scene notes in the Editing/Scene Notes module. And when you are ready to submit to film festivals, enter the Film Festival module to view and enter hundreds of festivals all over the world. Well, it might not be "everything" but is sure is a hell of a lot!
Who designed it? Filmmakers, of course! Aaton Cohen-Sitt decided it was time to make a film and he needed something to help him put it all together. Why use Excel for a budget, Word for a character list, and a contact manager software for contacts? He decided to design a single, complete, seamless program which makes it a snap to get all your resources with a couple of keystrokes -- hence Gorilla!
The published price is that of Gorilla Combo Pack. Pricing information can be found here.

An interesting series of positive reviews: All on the same day, all from "people" who have posted precisely one review for all time. Something is fishy.

Epic bullocks.
Just downloaded and got an instant headache from the interface. Who the hell needs an application for editing and taking care of your budget/shoot days and wardrobe? It's like mixing apples and horses.
I love how the description makes it sound professional by stating it can handle pre-during- and postproduction while in reality it lacks exactly those qualities. "Then work on your crew list". Aww come on, are you guys for real? This function isn't even necessary, it probably makes the user feel pro - but nothing else.
This is crap. And then they got the nerve to charge people for it?

Got this message when attempting to access Gorilla's links:"Secure Connection failed. www.junglesoftware.com uses an invalid security certificate."
Download link brings a 404 error...."The resource requested could not be found on this server."
Link to Gorilla website requires log-in.
What's up with all that?

I started using Gorilla with 2.2 and thought that it was a necessity for any independent film maker. Well Jungle software has outdone themselves with Gorilla 4.0. Keeping track of casting, scheduling, budgeting has become so much easier. The layout of the program makes it unnescessary to spend hours with a tutorial to get started. One can load the program and be up and running immediately. Gorilla makes it possible for independent filmmakers to spend more time making films and less time shuffling papers. I could not complete a review without mentioning Gorilla support has be fantastic and prompt as well.

Version: 4.0.1
Gorilla 4.0.1 is a fully developed production tool that allows first-time users access to toosets that are normally found in multiple programs costing twice as much.
After generating a .SEX file from MMSW or FD, our students can take a 120 page screenplay and within one week produce a scedule, budget, storyboards, shotlists, call sheets, production reports, and breakdown sheets.
Now that Final Draft Tagger import bug has been fixed, everything has been clear sailing for us!
This program is the REAL DEAL! If you are serious about production, do yourself a favor and take a peek at this package - you'll be hooked!
