You may have certain audience members who reside outside a virtual screening's geographic restrictions - jury members, filmmakers, or other VIPs - who you wish to have access to the screening.
The solution? Enable "bypass geographic restrictions" on a pass bucket to create a pass that can override the geographic restrictions!
If you haven't set up a pass yet, check out this video that walks you through the process, or this article about pass buckets!
How to override geographic restrictions:
Either create a new pass bucket, or duplicate an existing pass bucket by clicking the duplicate icon in the top right of the screen:
Click Pass Rules (in the right corner of the blue banner), and click "Add new rule" to create a new rule, or click "Edit" on an existing rule that you would like to edit.
Scroll down to bottom of the rule editing dialog box to locate the "Virtual screening restrictions" heading and check the "Bypass geographic restrictions" box:
Click save, and now this pass will bypass geographic restrictions for virtual screenings! There's no additional action needed for passholders.
There are a number of ways to send these passes to your special guests -- use the Box Office, Bulk Import Passes, or send your guests a direct link to buy a pass!
Please note that there is not currently an option to override geographic restrictions with a special ticket. Bypassing geographic restrictions is only possible by enabling this setting on a pass bucket.
