Add looks to your production

When creating your productions, you can add a list of products to shoot or looks for a better follow-up of the rest to do. To add looks, the procedure is the same as for references.

• From the settings page for your production, access the “Shooter references” screen
• Use the table at your disposal to copy and paste the names of the looks or references or click on the “Edit” link next to the number of references to shoot to choose the references from your Grand Shooting catalog.
  
  

• The dropdown menu allows you to filter the looks for example. Refine your search using folders.
  

• Select your looks, then drag them to the right column

Styling: Export looks to PDF

After creating your looks, export them as a PDF. Convenient to take them with you to the photo studio! It is possible to export them en masse by selecting all the references in a folder or to do it one by one. Use the menu inside the 3 small dots.

Edit catalog information from the Grand Shooting screens

The catalog information is loaded via the upload of an excel file. You can now edit them manually or even add an image to your reference.

From your shotlist, click on “Catalog info”.

From the Live, use the 3 small dots to get to the catalog screen.

To change or add information, click “Edit.”

Warning: you cannot use an already existing reference or associate an EAN already associated with another reference.

New user rights

A new access right has been set up to manage the users of your account: the restricted user. You give it access to 3 screens to choose from and can restrict its visibility to a catalog perimeter.

1. To create a new user, you need to be an administrator of your Grand Shooting account. Click on the hexagon at the top of the home page, then on “Team” and finally on “New User”.
2. Fill in the fields in the form then click on “Restricted User”.
   Choose the screens he can access: image bank, validation, shotlist (read-only).

The perimeter section of the catalog allows you to restrict its visibility on images belonging to part of your catalog (universe/range/family column in your excel file). Click on “Hierarchy Keywords” and specify the keywords in the catalog. To help you, Grand Shooting offers you existing catalog information. You can add several to the same user.

In our example, the user will have access to the “Image Bank” and “Validation” screens filtered on the “Shoes” category.

A new color is available in the zoom

The color white is now available in the zoom to highlight your images. The feature is at the top right of the zoom.

Send a message to the capture operator

When you add access rights to the capture manager to upload visuals, an email is sent automatically. Starting today, personalize this message to explain your process, for example.

To personalize this message, go to the production settings, section “Alerts and Workflow”. If the message is still the same, add it to your production templates.

Be alerted when pictures are missing in the Live

A new alert is available: the alert on missing views.

Grand Shooting can deduce from the declared references to shoot and from your specifications the number of visuals to be produced. If images are missing, you will know it thanks to the alert counter available at the top of the right column.

• Start by entering your specifications or shotlist
• Activate the feature in the shooting session settings in the “Alerts” section. Remember to modify your production templates to take advantage of this new feature automatically (if you are a brand, ask your producer to activate this alert).
  

• When creating the shooting sessions, add the references to the shooter from the production settings.
  
  

• Once on the Live, empty boxes appear on the contact sheet to represent each product. This box automatically disappears when all the views have been uploaded to Grand Shooting. The “missing view” information also appears in the Excel display.

New presentation of Live alerts

In the live, alerts are summarized in the excel view. The red counter highlights the number of alerts to be processed. If necessary, you can extract this table using the “Download the excel file” button at the bottom right of the screen.

New display of annotations in the Live

Save time! The annotations are directly visible on the images. When you hover over the image, comments appear.

Adjust the size of thumbnails in the Live

In image mode, use the slider available at the top right to change the display size of your images. The number of images varies depending on the size of your screen.
