Everything that came with the film, and a straighter answer about where it was shot.
All of this is on Other Work — your non-KTL films at /submit-work/. The weekly submit form is untouched for now.
Scripts and other files
You can attach files to a piece: the script, a treatment, a storyboard, a shot list, a call sheet, a press kit, a poster. Say what each one is and give it a name people will understand. They show up as downloads on the film’s page.
Photos already worked and still do — stills, behind-the-scenes, premiere and cast shots, each with a caption, in their own gallery. What was missing was everything that is a document rather than a picture. A PDF has no business in an image grid, so they are two separate sections.
Whatever you put up is public. Only post what you are happy for anyone to have.
Elsewhere
A row of links to where the film lives outside KTL: the Kickstarter or Indiegogo that paid for it, a band site, a festival page, an IMDb entry. Archived and finished is fine. A campaign that closed years ago is still part of how the film got made.
Bonus material that goes both ways
If the behind-the-scenes or the treatment is already its own page here, attaching it no longer means having two copies of the same video. Paste the link and it plays in the Versions switcher on the main film, with an arrow through to its own page — its credits, its notes, its comments.
And it works in reverse. Land on the treatment and it now says what it is a treatment for, with a link to the film and to the behind-the-scenes beside it. Before, those pages were a dead end.
One column instead of a pile at the bottom
In the theater, the third column was “Director’s notes” and held one paragraph. It is now Bonus materials, and everything that belongs to the film but is not the film lives there: the notes first, then the song, what it is part of, photos, files, and outbound links. All of that used to be stacked under the page where most people never scrolled.
Three ways to say where you filmed
+ Public Location — search a venue by name. Parks, theatres, studios, landmarks. Plotted exactly, because they are public anyway.
+ General Area — a ZIP or postal code, or a city. The pin drops at a random point inside that area, roughly a kilometre off, deliberately.
+ Exact Coordinates — paste a lat/long and the pin goes precisely there, no rounding.
The reason the middle one exists: a lot of KTL films are shot in somebody’s living room. An exact pin on a house is an address on a public map, and it is not always the address of the person posting. So anywhere somebody lives goes in General Area — the film still shows up in the right part of town, without putting anyone’s home on the map. Exact Coordinates is for places that are already public.
Three location bugs, one of which may have cost you something
Editing a piece erased where it was filmed. The editor opened with your locations blank no matter what you had saved, and the first save wrote that blank back over them. If you have edited an Other Work piece recently, worth checking it still knows where it was shot.
Typing an area did nothing. The list of matching places was being drawn at the very bottom of the page, far from the box you were typing in, so there was nothing to pick and nothing got saved. Fixed. Typing a ZIP and pressing save now just works — it looks it up and adds it rather than dropping it.
A city never reached the map. Cities used to be stored as text and then placed by hand later, if anyone noticed. Now every option in that list carries the boundary its pin comes from, and anything that cannot be placed is not offered at all.
Also
The shooting locations map is about 15% lighter to load. Every pin was writing its coordinates out to forty-odd digits where nine would do.
