Selecting Your Project Template: Streamlining the Process with the Right Template

 

When creating a video on Shootsta Pro, selecting the right project template is essential to ensure that the correct approval workflows and briefing fields are applied. Each template is designed for specific types of content, ensuring your project meets internal guidelines and audience expectations. Here’s a breakdown of the available project template types:

  1. Training and Induction:
    This template is intended for videos that will be seen by internal stakeholders, as well as prospective employees and contractors. If your video is related to training, onboarding, or induction processes, this is the template to select. It comes with specific approval sign-offs and briefing fields to ensure the content aligns with company standards for employee education. For more details, visit the dedicated page.

  2. Piece to Camera (Announcement/GM Update):
    Use this template for videos like announcements, general manager updates, or other direct-to-camera content intended solely for internal stakeholders. The template includes fields that guide you through structuring your message clearly, and it ensures all necessary internal sign-offs are in place before publishing. For more information, refer to the provided page.

  3. Safety and Safe Production System Communications:
    Safety is a top priority, and this template is specifically for videos focused on safety and the Safe Production System. Intended for internal audiences, this template ensures that your content meets the necessary safety standards and approval requirements. It includes specialised briefing fields to highlight critical safety protocols. More information can be found on the corresponding page.

  4. External Communications:
    This template is designed for videos that will be seen by external stakeholders, including clients, customers, partners, or the public. It ensures that your content is aligned with branding, legal, and compliance requirements for external audiences. The briefing fields and approval processes in this template are tailored for external-facing communications. Visit the page for further details.

  5. Internal Communications:
    If your video is meant for internal stakeholders only, this is the template to choose. It’s suitable for company updates, team communications, or any internal-facing content. The template ensures that your message is structured properly and that all internal approval sign-offs are completed before distribution. For more details, see the relevant page.

What If You Need Something Outside These Templates?

If you find that your project doesn’t fit neatly into one of these templates, it’s important to partner with your Company Admins to explore creating a new or customised template. Working with your admin team will help scope out the right briefing fields and approval workflows for content that falls outside these predefined categories.

By selecting the correct project template, you streamline the approval process and ensure that your video is structured correctly to meet its intended purpose and audience. Each template provides the necessary fields to guide you through the process and helps you stay compliant with internal and external requirements.
