If you are unfamiliar with Dropbox, we have
prepared this tutorial to assist you.

3. Step 1:
Dropbox will send an email inviting you to use a shared folder for your film.

your correct email address.

Click on the View Film Title link within the email. Your folder name will be
your film title.

When you click the link in the email, it will open up the Dropbox sign-in page in your
internet browser.

This folder is where you should upload all of your marketing materials. You can upload
images, videos, and word documents into this folder. To upload a file, click the upload
icon, click Choose files and select the file or files from your computer

10. Step 11:
After you upload your image, video, or document, you should see the file
listed in your film folder. Now I will be able to transfer that file to the folder
for your venues. After I move your file it will no longer be visible in your film
folder.
