Style guide positions
As mentioned earlier, the Positions on the Style Guide describe the different views or angles to be produced that need to be produced for a product. You can add up to 60 positions per production type.
The following settings can be made on the position level:
Target shot
Upload a target shot for each position. The target shot will be displayed in the photography / final selection step and should reflect a good example of the position.
Position name
Define a name for each position. The position name will be displayed for the photography / final selection steps and should describe the position.
Shot count
Define the shot count for each position. The shot count defines how many images need to be uploaded to the position. You can select between:
Range - To define a range of shoots produced/uploaded to the position.
Exact - To define an exact number of images to be produced/uploaded to the position.
Unlimited - To give the option to produce/upload an unlimited amount of images to the position, including a minimum amount. The maximum number we allow is 99.
Optional Position
Define if the whole position should be optional by checking the toggle optional.
Position-specific description and files
Add/edit position-specific descriptions and files by clicking the icons below.
Position Settings
Every position can have its dedicated settings. You can click ‘Settings’ button next to each position
General settings:
Position type - The position can have two different types, normal and ghost mannequin. A 'normal' position type contains no additional logic. A 'ghost mannequin' position type requires uploading up to 5 additional inclips in the final selection step.
Hero position - If the 'hero position' is checked, this position will be used as a preview thumbnail for tasks. Hero positions can also be filtered in 'Asset’ tab.
Enforce 'alts' and Photo review - Both of these settings are related to the workflow step 'Photo review'. When 'Photo review' is activated on the selected workflow, you can define if a specific amount of alternatives needs to be added to this position in the final selection and if photo review is required for this position (Photo review - custom positions).
Bypass External post: You can choose to skip the external post for images added to this position.
Color reference: You can choose images added to this position to be used as a color reference.
