# Podcast and interview editing brief

BEIZ Studio | 2026-10-24

Complete the points you already know. Leave undecided items as questions for discussion. Examples and a task description are enough for an initial enquiry; the final estimate depends on reviewing the source files. Do not include account passwords.

1. **Project and audience.** What is the conversation about, who will watch it and which languages does the audience use?

Answer:

2. **Recording.** Folder link, episode count, total duration, camera count and audio tracks. Name files so the episode, camera and speaker are identifiable.

Answer:

3. **Source condition.** Did recording stop at any point? Are files missing, or are there audio or picture problems? Include timecodes where available.

Answer:

4. **Full episode.** Is a full version required, and what is the preferred running length? What must stay, be shortened or be removed? Which topics must not be used?

Answer:

5. **Short clips.** Preferred count, approximate lengths and priority topics. Will you provide timecodes, or do you need editorial selection? We confirm the clip count after reviewing the material.

Answer:

6. **Versions and destinations.** Horizontal, vertical or other aspect ratios, resolution and file requirements. Share presentation references if available.

Answer:

7. **Speakers and text.** Correct spelling of names, roles, companies and specialist terms. Who checks factual accuracy and approves the meaning of shortened passages?

Answer:

8. **Visual treatment.** Logos, fonts, intros, inserts, music and other assets. Which are ready, and which need creating? List intended uses and the rights held for supplied assets.

Answer:

9. **Subtitles and translation.** Recording language and delivery languages. Should subtitles be embedded or delivered separately? Arabic text requires native-speaker proofreading, agreed in the scope.

Answer:

10. **Approvals.** Feedback contact, people involved in approval and preferred revision rounds. Comments on edits will use timecodes.

Answer:

11. **Timing and priorities.** Preferred delivery and publication dates, and which versions are needed first. We confirm the schedule after assessing the scope and approval process.

Answer:

12. **File handover.** Final file list, any requirement for working projects or source files, and retention preferences. We agree these terms separately before work starts.
