What the film shows

The film follows a fictional festival. Fans' questions arrive across the website, Instagram, Facebook, WhatsApp and more, and FanAssist answers from the festival's own approved information, replying in each fan's language. An accessibility question is answered carefully and passed to the right team with the details already gathered. When plans change, one update reaches every channel. Questions about the last shuttle or the weather get live answers, and when a fan raises a welfare concern, the festival's welfare team steps in. It ends: Every fan. Every channel. Every moment. No sound is needed to follow it.

Frequently asked questions

Can fans use it outside staffed hours?

Yes, where continuous availability is included in the service design. Live updates and human responses still depend on the relevant systems and teams.

Can it sell or amend tickets?

Only where the ticketing system, permissions and agreed workflow support those actions.

Can event teams update information?

The update process, approval owners and urgent-change route are agreed before the event.

Does it manage emergencies?

No. It provides the agreed emergency signposting and escalation route; it does not replace event control or emergency services.
