Release Notes History
This app launches Screening Room for the current context. Jumping into your review session has never been easier! Just click a button and Screening Room will open, focused on the particular shot or asset you are currently working on. This also makes it really easy to see your submitted versions in context or review different variations that you submitted from inside your content creation application.
Documentation
This is a small app that hooks up your current Maya session with Screening Room. It will add an item to the Shotgun menu saying Jump to Screening Room. Clicking this button will launch Screening Room and point it at the current Shotgun Toolkit Context - for example a Shot, Asset or a Task. You can then use Screening Room to browse all submitted content.
