148 Chapter 8 Using Status Metadata in the Final Cut Server Workflow
Sending Review Emails to Administrator-Defined Reviewers
In this configuration, the Final Cut Server administrator manually enters each required
reviewer’s email address during setup. As a result, the Final Cut Server user does not
see the list of required reviewers and cannot manually enter email addresses in the
“Required reviewers” field of the Review & Approve pane.
When the email addresses have been entered manually by the administrator, email
notifications are automatically sent whenever the Status metadata field is set to Ready
for Review (and any time the asset is modified while it is set to Ready for Review).
This configuration is best if you know that the same set of reviewers should receive
Review and Approve email notifications for all assets. Also, this configuration does not
require you to enter required reviewer email addresses; in fact, if you enter email
addresses, they are ignored.
To send Review and Approve email notifications to a set of defined reviewers:
1 Locate the asset or project that you want to send out for review in the Assets or
Productions pane, then double-click the asset or project to display its info window.
2 In the asset or project info window, click to open the Review & Approve pane.
Click to open the
Review & Approve pane.
