Select a sample note and the clip pauses on its timecode. The note and the video stay together, so you can get back to the edit with a specific instruction.

A review round, from start to finish.

Your client asks to change the music at 12 seconds. The note stays on that moment, so you can find it when you return to the edit.

  1. 1

    Send the cut

    Upload the version you want reviewed and share its link with the client.

  2. 2

    Work through the notes

    Use comments and drawings to find the shot or edit the client means.

  3. 3

    Keep the revisions together

    Add each new cut to the project so you and the client can find earlier feedback.

Keep the next step clear.

Send one place for feedback

Give the client a review link rather than another file attachment. Read the notes beside the cut and work through them in your editor.

Keep the earlier cuts close

Add revisions to the project so you can return to the earlier feedback. Compare the change before you send the client another link.
