Creating a New Project

In order to take advantage of most of the member-specific features on our site, users will need to create projects, which are associated with their work.  Projects can be thought of as over-encompassing folders that hold related content or video.  For instance, if you produce a weekly cooking show, you would have one project (perhaps named the same as your show) and then all of the various episodes would be associated with this project.

These projects allow members to reserve equipment, upload content, create project blogs, wikis and event, as well as request a crew.

Here are the steps in order to do this:

1.  Log-into your account on the Denver Open Media homepage.

2.  Under My Member Tools select Create Project.

3.  You will now be directed to the Create Project page.

4.  Under Title, type the title of your project.

5. Enter a Full Description of your project.

6.  Choose the appropriate project type from the drop-down menu.

7.  Add a project icon/image if desired.

8.  Add a public email and website address if desired (this info will be displayed to the public on your project page.)

9.  Choose how you would like members to be added to your project.

10.  In Metadata, select the default Language and Audience for all of the shows in this project (Please note: You can always tweak this and the following information on all individual show pages, but for now you are just choosing the default.)

12.  Choose a show rating.

13.  Check whether or not the project was created locally.

18.  Press Save.

19.  This will now bring you to your newly created Project page (Please note: This page is under development and looks somewhat confusing.)
