Pandora Machine Wiki

This is how we do stuff in the Pandora Machine

• Mission Statement
• An overviewof our process.

Shockingly the most important technical issue, the one that will touch everyone working on a project, from the earliest stages of pre-production to the latest stage of publicity is data management.

• Data Management

And the most important thing to keep in mind is the "job number" assigned to each movie. Each movie, at the time of the creation of the first document (whether it's an idea, beat-sheet or a script) is assigned a 4-digit "job number". The first two digits are the year, the second two are assigned numerically.
