Notes on the exact frame, from anyone with a link
Clients and producers watch the cut in their browser from a link and write a note on the frame they are looking at. It lands on your timeline as a mark.
Instead of an email full of timecodes that never quite match the cut you have open.
- For Editors, Post houses
- Plans Studio and up
“Can we lose the bit where he looks away?” is a hard note to act on. A timecode is easier, as long as it matches the cut you have open. With B/side, the note is written on the frame itself.
How a note gets to you
- Send a link. Your client or producer opens it in their browser and watches the cut.
- They write on the frame they are watching. There is no timecode to copy and no screenshot to attach.
- It appears on your timeline as a mark, and in the Notes panel with everyone else’s notes.
- You work through them in place, editing a note when it needs it and resolving it when it is done.
Notes stay put
An edit never deletes a note. Recut the scene and the notes are still there. When a note is dealt with, resolve it, so the list only shows what is left to do.
Who pays
Send the link to the whole producing team if that is who needs to see it. Sharing and notes are part of the Studio plan and up.
Why it matters
Notes are where a schedule slips. A note that points at the right frame gets fixed the first time. A note that has to be decoded turns into a phone call, and the phone call turns into another round.
When every note sits on the frame it was written about, you spend notes day making the changes, not working out what was meant.
Questions
Do reviewers have to pay?
No. Reviewers and clients who only watch and give notes are never charged. They open a link in their browser and write their notes on the frame, with nothing to install.
What happens to a note when I change the cut?
An edit never deletes a note. Notes can be edited, and resolved once they are dealt with.
Which plan do I need?
Sharing and notes need the Studio plan or higher.
