Hey @Mathyou_Griffass—welcome to the :shotgun: community! Thanks for the question. :slight_smile:

In short, Shotgun is a project management and pipeline platform that helps creative studios track, schedule, review, collaborate, and manage their digital assets across the globe.

With a little more detail, Shotgun is a cloud and desktop-connected platform that:

  • helps producers and managers schedule and track creative projects
  • provides tools for creative supervisors to review media in desktop, theater-based, and client presentation review settings
  • integrates with creative applications—like Krita, Maya, Nuke, and so on—to serve as the backbone of your creative pipeline

This handy overview video covers the major points of what/why/for who if you’re curious for more:

How’d you find us? Possibly through the community contributed integration with Krita+Shotgun?
