Intro to spaces and projects
Everything in FilmKit lives in a space, and each production in a space is a project. You set up your team once in the space, and everyone on it can work in all of the space's projects.
Spaces
A space is the home of a production company, a collective, or one person working alone. It holds:
- Projects: Every production the space makes.
- Members: The people who can open and edit the space's projects.
- Address book: Everyone the space works with, such as cast, crew, and vendors. See Intro to contacts.
- Managed profiles: Directory profiles the space looks after, such as an agency's actors. See Manage profiles for others.
- Settings: The space's name, logo, and company contact details, which appear on documents you publish. See Change space settings.
- Trash: Contacts deleted from the address book, which you can restore for 30 days. See Restore deleted items from the Trash.
You can belong to more than one space, and you switch between them from the top of the sidebar.
Projects
A project is one production, such as a feature, a series, or a short. It contains the screenplays, the catalog of characters, places, and items, the shots, storyboards, and whiteboards, the schedule and call sheets, the On Set log, and the casting calls and crew jobs. The project's overview has a card for each of these areas.
Each project has its own settings, such as its name, logo, region, and time zone. See Change project settings.
Most things you delete in a project move to the project's Trash, where you can restore it for 30 days. See Restore deleted items from the Trash.
Who can work in a project
Members of a space can edit every project in it. People who aren't members can still take part: you can give a contact read-only access to the projects they're on, and you can send anyone the documents you publish, such as call sheets and sides. See Roles and access.
Working together
When several people work in a project at once, everyone's changes appear for everyone as they're made, and you can see who else is there. You can keep working when you lose your connection, and FilmKit saves your changes when you reconnect. See Work together in real time.
