1. Check and synchronize
Confirm all camera and microphone files are present. Use the recording reference to align them and inspect restarts or drift. Keep the originals intact. Flag technical gaps before deciding which camera angles can support the whole episode.
- Speaker names and pronunciation notes supplied.
- Off-record passages marked.
- Sponsor and intro instructions supplied.
- Audio-only output requirement confirmed.
2. Review the conversation edit
Build the dialogue sequence before cosmetic finishing. Remove repetition where it obscures the discussion, but preserve pauses and reactions that carry meaning. Check edits around interruptions carefully: joining two fragments can accidentally create a statement the guest did not make.
- Question and answer remain connected.
- Camera changes match the actual conversation.
- Sponsor wording reviewed separately.
- Host or producer approves the structure.
3. Finish and select clips
Refine dialogue consistency, speaker graphics and captions. Select short passages that have their own context and conclusion. Record source timecodes and the reason each clip is useful. Agree the number and formats rather than assuming every episode automatically includes an unlimited clip package.
- Guest names and technical vocabulary checked.
- Each clip retains material qualifications.
- Vertical framing keeps the relevant speaker visible.
- Clip topics are distinct rather than repetitive.
4. Verify the delivery set
Watch the episode export and every derivative. Check the first and last frames, sponsor positions and file names. Compare the folder against the agreed manifest and test a representative upload. Keep the approved master separate from drafts and store the final feedback record for corrections.
