Good feedback practices
Group your corrections into a single message with timecodes: 00:12 change the title, 00:31 reduce the music, 01:04 replace the shot, etc.
- Avoid contradictory feedback from several people.
- Appoint one approval contact on the client side.
- Distinguish between a correction, a creative preference and a new out-of-scope request.
- Approve texts, logos, names, dates and legal notices before final export.
Freelance collaboration
Profiles wishing to collaborate can send a short presentation, their specialties, availability, area of operation, references and a link to a portfolio or showreel. Collaborations are reviewed according to the real needs of each project.
