The NFA ShotGrid Project Creator

This standalone application is a GUI rewrite of our ShotGrid Project Creation script. It is a completely custom tool for properly creating ShotGrid projects so they are correctly configured for use in our ShotGrid pipeline. It was designed to simplify several settings, like:

  • Setting the right ShotGrid configuration branch based on the year a student is in.
  • Validating project names and codes so no duplicates are created.
  • Specific Netherlands Filmacademy settings, like whether we are dealing with a fiction or a documentary project.

Installation instructions

This is a highly specific tool for use at our school, so you will have to customize it to suit your needs. Nevertheless, you can use it like this:

  • Use a recent version of Python 3, making sure it supports the correct packages.
  • Install the following packages: PySide2, shotgun_api3.
  • Create an enviroment variable called SHOTGRID_API_KEY and set the value to your ShotGrid API key. The script name associated with the key should be project_creation_V2.
  • Run the program with python main.py. We recommend packaging it as an executable for installation on artist computers.
