Property sheets let you attach a collection of custom fields to shots, elements and assets. In this tutorial I show administrators how to define, attach and use a property sheet.

There are two kinds of status on shots, elements, etc.:

• The status code or pulldown
• Entering a status note

In this very short tutorial, I cover the different ways to set and view status.

#011 Setting Status (6Mb, 03:45)

Its been a little over a year since I put up the ‘Submit and Review work’ tutorial. A few things have changed so it was time for a redo. This replaces the existing tutorial #003 and covers:

• Artists can Submit Work on their tasks. You can set the reviewer, update your task status and % complete, add some notes, and upload your WIP files.
• There is also Submit Work on shots. This might be good for compositors.
• Supervisors will see all the pending workitems on their dashboard. Responding to the artist with feedback clears the workitem.
• Administrators can see all outstanding and closed workitems for all users from the Administration menu.

One thing I forgot to cover was “Request Response”, so you might still want to check out tutorial #003 for that.

#010 Project Pages (22Mb, 09:54)

Project Pages, or just “Pages” is a new feature in ShotRunner that lets you create online documents with images and styled text. These can be used for anything from storyboards to layout to standards and procedures.

• All text can be styled using Textile Markup
• Images can be justified to the left or right of text
• Images can be in four sizes (small, medium, large, and original)
• Text and image sections can include an optional title
• Divider sections can be used to break up large pages
• You can drag and drop sections to re-arrange their order on the page
• You can browse all prior versions of a page, to see what has changed and by whom.

Here is a tutorial on using Pages. I hope to have a more concise tutorial up soon.
