Contact sheets without handing over the folder
A contact sheet is made from everything at once, which is exactly what makes uploading one awkward. Frankensheet reads the folder off your disk, lays it out, labels it, and writes a sheet you can print or send.
What an online tool has to do first
-
It has to receive your file. A web service cannot work on something it does not have, so the first step is always a copy of your file leaving your machine and arriving on a computer you do not control.
-
It has to keep it long enough to work. However short that window is, and whatever the policy says about deleting it afterwards, the file was somewhere else while the work happened.
-
It has to stay paid for. A tool that lives on someone's server stops existing when that server does — along with whatever you were relying on it to keep doing.
What this does instead
Point it at a folder and Frankensheet arranges every image into a single ordered contact sheet — sized, labelled, and ready to print or send. Point it at a video and it does the same with the frames.
- Contact sheets from any folder
- Frame boards from any video
- PDF, PNG or JPEG, print-ready
