Film and TV location library software

The Location Collective

This innovative location library gives a cut of its commission to its members who are location managers. The massive database now contains hundreds of thousands of photos, and the impressive administration area allows the company's staff to easily interact with the library as they find filming locations for their clients.

More than a website, this is a business system that this young, and now incredibly successful, business depends upon.

About the software

This slick site was designed with its users in mind : hard pressed location managers. These guys need to browse location images quickly seeing as much detail on the location as possible. The main image is given pride of place, with thumbnails that are large enough to make out detail.

Uploading large collections of photos is easy too using a Java applet (much like the one Facebook uses) which lets users select images from thumbnails on their local computer which are then bulk uploaded.
