Skylark’s out-of-the-box data model offers many ways to structure your media content in order to build unique and world-class streaming products.

In its simplest form, Skylark offers the following hierarchy for its data model:

Brands
Seasons

Assets

There is also the Movie object which can be used specifically for presenting Movies via the API outside of the Brands > Seasons > Episodes format.

Custom Content

Skylark also supports custom content objects to add rich layers of extra metadata to the above content hierarchy. These objects are:

People
Roles
Genres
Themes
Ratings
Parental Guidance

Each of the above objects have differing amounts of assignable metadata. You can find this information on the corresponding documentation page for each object.
