Images, videos and documents

Upload, approve and order a model's media, documents with expiry date, comp card.

Under Edit model, the Media area has three tabs: Images, Videos and Documents.

Upload and clean-up

  • Upload images takes JPG, PNG or WebP up to 100 MB.
  • Upload videos takes MP4 or MOV up to 100 MB.

The upload shows progress and time remaining. Afterwards the file briefly shows Processing: CastTool checks that the content matches the file type and removes metadata such as GPS. Only this cleaned version is ever published, never the original. A file that does not match shows as declined, with the reason.

Approve and order

New files are Private. Only Approved files go on the website:

  • Approve approves one file, the button above the images approves all at once.
  • Revoke takes it off the website again.
  • Set as main image picks the image for gallery, preview and comp card.
  • Move forward in order and Move back in order set the order.
