Media and creative records
Briefs, edit notes, schedules and client feedback. How creative work gets shaped, from first idea to final cut.
Test screening: viewers drifted off at 1:10, during the long drive-in.
Change: cut 40 seconds, moved the interview to the top.
Next test: 92% watched to the end.
Notes by Ellie Watson
What labs want from media and creative.
These are the records that matter most in this sector. Files that link together, over several years, are worth the most.
- Briefs and client feedbackWhat was asked for, and what changed along the way.
- Edit notes and versionsEvery cut, and the reason for it.
- Production schedules and budgetsWhat was planned against what it really took.
- Test screenings and audience resultsWhat landed, and what didn’t.
- Project emailsThe decisions behind the finished piece.
- Event and production logsWhat went wrong on the night, and the save.
