Types of Files in Assemble

Before adding files, you need to decide which file type makes the most sense for your needs. Assemble has four different file types with their own unique benefits:

• Assets: Assets are individual files. Assets are considered self-contained, individual assets and will come with version control so that you can manage versions throughout the life of the project. 

To learn more about uploading individual assets, click here.

• Gallery: A gallery is a collection of assets, such as a photo gallery. Galleries can be a combination of any types of assets (i.e. photos, videos and other files) and will be combined into a shareable gallery format with scroll arrows and thumbnail navigation. Galleries do not have version control.

• Bookmarks: You can also add a link to any external website or app.

• Submissions: Submissions enable you to create a spec (such as a description for a casting role), and then submit multiple submissions for approval. You can think of submissions as a gallery of galleries.

Uploading your Files

To upload a file, select which phase you'd like to add your asset to in the column on the left side of your project. 

Next, click the box + Add button in the top right corner of the screen. From here, you can select which type of file you want to add.
