What is stored for each film?

Films are in your website's own menu: open the website, then Pages & Content, Films. Open a film and each part of it has its own tab, with one Save for the whole film.

Each film has one record for its title, logline, synopses, year, runtime, format, genres, languages, countries, production stage, release date, poster, backdrop, trailer, and official website. The same record holds cast and crew, festival selections and awards, press coverage, downloadable assets, press kits, watch links, and private notes. Publishing a film creates its public page and adds it to the site's Films page.

The Logline is one sentence about the story and is shown on Filmography cards. The Highlight is the short line under the title in the Film Hero, usually the film's biggest award. Set Main Film to Yes on the film your website is about: the Film Hero shows it, and it is left out of Previous Films. Only one film can be the main film, so choosing one clears it on the others. World Premiere is shown in Film Details, and Stills are the photos for the Film Details gallery, in the order you set with the arrows.

Each award under Festivals & Awards can carry its Laurel, the festival's laurel artwork. The first laurels in the list are the ones your landing page shows, so move the strongest to the top with the arrows.

Screenings are not typed on the film. A screening is an event in Content, Events Calendar with the film chosen under Related Film, so a date is entered once and shows in your calendar and on the film. The film's Screenings tab lists them and has an Add a screening button. The event's tag says what kind it is: Festival, Special event, or Cinema screening. Your site lists festivals and cinema dates separately, so the tag decides where a screening appears; an event with neither the Festival nor the Special event tag counts as a cinema screening. The event's image is the cinema's or the festival's logo.

Press is two lists. Critic Quotes holds short quotes from reviews, each with the critic, the outlet, the outlet's logo and Link to the Review; the first quotes in the list are the ones your landing page shows. A quote with a link opens that review on your website, wherever the quote appears. Press Articles holds headlines with a link, a date and a photo; switch Highlight on for an article with a photo to show it as a card, and the rest are listed under More Coverage. The first 4 highlights are the ones your landing page shows. An outlet with no logo is shown by its name. A quote or article with no link is flagged in red under its link, so you can find the ones to fill in.

Where to Watch lists each place the film can be seen: pick the Platform from the list (or Other and type its name), choose How (Stream, Rent or buy, Free), add a short Note such as a price, the Link and, if it only plays in some countries, the Region. Each one becomes a tile with a Watch button. A film with no places to watch shows no Where to Watch section.

Press Kit holds the files journalists download: give each one a Name, choose What It Is (poster, film stills, photos of the filmmakers, press notes, title treatment, trailer) and upload the File, a picture, a video or a PDF. Use the arrows to set the order. When a film has files, your website gets a Press Kit page; with none, there is no press kit. Under Contacts for This Film you can add a press contact and a screening bookings contact for when someone else handles that film, like a distributor. Left empty, your website's own contact is used.
