Question 1

Who is Studio Manager for?

Accepted Answer

Independent commercial and branded-video producers who want production plans, rights records and handoff materials together.

Question 2

What can I do in a project?

Accepted Answer

Attach a screenplay and review or edit its draft scene breakdown; edit budgets; track dated milestones, crew and credits, expenses and receipt review, risks, production documents, rights records, deliverables and a distribution checklist.

Question 3

Who can create or access customer projects?

Accepted Answer

A project owner with verified email and an active recognized plan can invite a crew member by email. The invitee must sign in or create an account, verify the invited email and accept before that exact project is shared. Indie includes 3 account seats, Producer 15 and Studio 50; the owner and accepted members use those seats. Manually recorded crew entries do not grant workspace access. The designated company owner retains private test access without a paid plan.

Question 4

What can I export?

Accepted Answer

Current exports are a rights-register CSV, distribution-checklist PDF and linked-evidence handoff bundle.

Question 5

How are project files backed up, retained or owned?

Accepted Answer

The available app documentation does not establish backup, retention or project-file ownership terms. An authoritative company data-handling policy covering those topics was not supplied. Ask the team before relying on a specific policy.

Question 6

Does Studio Manager provide clearance or guarantee distribution?

Accepted Answer

No. Studio Manager organizes records and evidence for human review; it does not provide legal advice, determine legal compliance or clearance, certify delivery, or guarantee distribution, distributor interest or a sale. Requirements vary, so confirm current specifications with each distributor, sales agent, festival or platform.

Question 7

Can I contact the team without signing up?

Accepted Answer

Yes. The contact form does not require sign-in. The team replies to the email address you submit; a message does not create an account, project or subscription.
