What is the Boards feature all about?

Accepted Answer

Boards are used to streamline media organization. You can create folders and subfolders to categorize photos for future use, making them easy to find, especially when taking a project from concept to completion.

Boards gives you the power to add images to Shotlists or other folders directly from the image itself. For each image—you can add notes and tags, or view the key image info and stats.

Question 8

Do I need to manually update my project status?

Accepted Answer

Projects in Shotlist have four statuses: Draft, Pending, Active, and Completed.

Draft status signifies that the project has not yet been “Published” and that all invited collaborators have not yet been sent project invitations. This is where you can freely work on finalizing any project information until ready.

Pending status signifies that the project is awaiting further action to proceed with the project in Active status.

Active status signifies that the project is live and allows the completion of shots in each shotlist. Shotlist allows the user to automatically change the status from Pending to Active in the event that a user needs to start completing shots while on set (In the project’s menu, toggle “Status Assistant'' to turn this feature ON or OFF).

Completed status signifies that the project has been completed in its entirety with all shots having been checked and completed.

If “Status Assistant'' is turned OFF, the project owner will need to manually complete the project in the status menu.

Question 9

How can I update or make changes to a Shotlist?

Accepted Answer

On a desktop, locate the desired project and select the (•••) options button in the top-right corner.

Next, click “Edit Project” in the popup menu. A window will appear allowing you to edit the project’s title, description, date/time, along with the project’s location.

This project editing functionality is currently Web only, but not to worry—iOS coming soon.
