The Creator Events feature allows you to schedule and track various types of creator activities beyond regular shifts. This is especially helpful for live streaming, as it allows you to plan and communicate when creators will be going live, ensuring both the team and audience know when to expect content.
You can filter the calendar view using the dropdowns at the top:
Creator: Filter by a specific creator
Month and Year: Choose the month you want to view
Search/Reset: Use these buttons to apply your filters or clear them

Livestream: Schedule when a creator will be broadcasting live
VOD Release: Mark when pre-recorded content will be published
