Step 1 — Get coordinates

Go to Google Maps and create pin for your location, then copy the coordinates then open studiobinder.

Step 2 ⏤ Open locations

Back in StudioBinder, hover over the Shoot tab on the project sidebar to reveal & click Locations from the drop-down menu.

Step 3 ⏤ Add a location

Click the green + New Location in the top right-hand corner of your page.

Step 4 ⏤ Enter location details

Input the address and any other relevant information specific to this location.

Step 5 ⏤ Save the location

When done, scroll down to the bottom of the overlay & click Save & Close to add the location and return to the locations page or click Save & Add Another to store another location.
