Creating a Presentation from Sessions

  1. Click the session you would like to use.
  2. Select the specific talent or groups of talent you want to include.
  3. Select Add to New Presentation.

A screenshot from a "Sessions" management interface. The page displays a table with three session results: "Self Tapes - Mom," "Day 1," and "Day 2." The "Day 2" session, which has a Source of "Manual" and was "Created On" April 10, 2021, 5:08 PM PST by "Auto User," is currently selected, indicated by a checkmark in its row. At the bottom of the screen, an arrow points from the selected session to a prominent blue button labeled **"Add To New Presentation."** Another button next to it is labeled "Add To Existing Presentation."

Creating a Presentation from Presentation Links

  1. On the Presentation page, select + New Presentation.

    A blue button with rounded corners that says "+ New Presentation" in white text.

  2. Give the presentation a name, choose your presentation type, and select Add.

    • Live Presentation: The content updates automatically based on changes made to the session. We recommend this option because it keeps your presentation up to date automatically.
    • Custom Presentation: The content does not change based on session updates. You can make changes directly within the presentation itself.

    A dialog box titled "Create New Presentation" with fields for "Presentation Name" (filled with "Day 1"), and "Presentation Type." The "Live Presentation" radio button is selected, with the description "The content of these presentations will be updated automatically based on changes made to sessions." Below this is "Choose Session" with checkboxes for "Day 1" (checked), "Day 2" (unchecked), and "Day 3" (unchecked). This entire section is highlighted by a red rectangular border. The "Custom Presentation" radio button is unselected at the bottom. The dialog has "Cancel" and "Add" buttons at the bottom right.

    A dialog box titled "Presentation Name\*" with the text field pre-filled with "Day 1" and "Presentation Type\*" below it. Two radio button options are provided: **Live Presentation** and **Custom Presentation**. The **Custom Presentation** option is selected, and it has a red box drawn around it. The explanatory text below the selected option reads: "The content of these presentations does not change based on changes to the session. You may make changes within the presentation itself." Below the options are two buttons, "Cancel" and a blue "Add" button.

  3. Select + New Folder, give it a name, and select Add.

    A rectangular blue button with rounded corners. On the button, a white plus sign icon is followed by the white text "New Folder".

    A dialog box titled **"Add New Folder"**. Below the title is a text input field labeled **"Folder Name\*"** which currently contains the text **"Blackbeard"**. At the bottom right are two buttons: **"Cancel"** (text link) and **"Add"** (blue button).

  4. Add your content using one of these methods:
    • Add an empty group and upload media.
    • Navigate to Sessions and select content gathered from FastCapture or Requested Media.
