Quick answer

A client gallery for filmmakers can keep review, presentation, and final delivery in one branded destination. GalleryDock supports cinema-style presentation, timecode comments, open and completed feedback, mixed photo-and-video projects, and controlled downloads. Current per-video upload limits depend on the plan: 750 MB on Free, 15 GB on Base, and 30 GB on Pro. It is not an NLE, a full production-management system, or an automatic legally binding approval service.

Project setup

Prepare the right client state

A film review and a final delivery need different labels, permissions, and expectations.

01

Name the version

Use a recognizable cut name and date so every note refers to the same export.

02

Choose a project cover

Use a cover and cinema-style presentation that supports the film instead of competing with it.

03

Check the plan limit

Confirm the current 750 MB, 15 GB, or 30 GB per-video limit before promising an upload workflow.

04

Define the review scope

Tell the client whether this round covers story, titles, sound, color, or final acceptance.

Timecode review

Keep feedback attached to the moment

Timecode comments reduce vague messages, but the filmmaker still controls versioning and decision ownership.

01

Invite the right reviewers

Share the private project with the people authorized to return feedback.

02

Collect timecode comments

Let clients pause at the relevant moment and leave a note for that scene.

03

Track open and completed notes

Resolve each item deliberately instead of treating silence as approval.

04

Consolidate stakeholder decisions

Ask one owner to settle conflicting direction before a new cut is exported.

Final delivery

Move from review to a polished handoff

The final gallery should make the approved media and download state unmistakable.

01

Verify the final export

Check playback, audio, captions, duration, and file identity before release.

02

Close the review stage

Confirm resolved notes and label the approved version clearly.

03

Open final downloads

Enable access only for the masters and supporting media included in the delivery.

04

Keep a production archive

Maintain source projects and masters outside the client gallery.
