Projects & Spaces

FilmKit organizes everything around two ideas: spaces and projects.

Spaces

A space is the top-level container for your work and your team. Think of it as your production company or collective. A space owns:

  • its projects,
  • the members who belong to it, and
  • space-level settings — a name, a logo, and company contact details.

Because people belong to a space, you manage who's on your team in one place instead of re-inviting the same collaborators to every project. Your dashboard lists every space you belong to; open one to see its projects.

Space settings

Space settings is where you manage the organization itself:

  • Profile — the space's name, logo, and company contact block.
  • Members — invite teammates by email, see who has access, and revoke access or pending invites. Everyone here has edit access to the space and all its projects.
  • Space ID — a copyable identifier used when a space is invited to co-manage a directory profile (for example, an agency managing an actor's profile).
  • Address book — the space-wide list of contacts (cast, crew, vendors) that casting and crew hiring draw from.

Projects

A project is one production — a feature, a series, a short, a spec script. Each project is a self-contained workspace that gathers everything that production needs:

Inside a project: the screenplay, characters, schedule, casting, and storyboards, all behind one navigation rail.
Inside a project: the screenplay, characters, schedule, casting, and storyboards, all behind one navigation rail.

The project navigation groups the work the way a production moves from idea to set:

  • Imagine — the screenplay, characters, places, and items.
  • Plan — shots, storyboards, whiteboards, schedule, shooting days, locations, and budget.
  • On Set — take logging and camera footage.
  • People — contacts, casting, and crew.

Projects live inside a space, and you can have as many as you need. Project settings let you set the title and logo, plus the region, temperature unit, time format, and time zone that drive how schedules and call sheets are displayed.

Access and collaboration

Access in FilmKit is all-or-nothing per collaborative document: if someone can open a project, they see the live, synced version of it. That keeps collaboration simple and predictable — there are no half-shared documents.

Who can see what

Different people need different views, so FilmKit distinguishes three personas:

Collaborators

Space or project members with edit access. They work in the live, real-time documents and see everything in the project.

Viewers

People linked to a contact on a project's roster. They get read-only, project-scoped access to an overview and publications — never the live document.

Crew

Contacts, often without an account at all. They receive publications only — their call sheet, sides, and schedule — through emailed and token-gated links.

Edit access is space-scoped: a member can edit every project in the space. Read access is project-scoped: a contact linked to an account can read only the projects where that contact is on the roster, and un-assigning the contact revokes that access immediately.
