NEWS VIDEO PRODUCTION · Workflow idea

Prepare a news video draft with sources, permissions, and review in view.

For news material and an avatar voice the publisher is authorized to use, select feed items and prepare narrated video drafts from their available summaries. Preserve source links and dates, verify every claim against the original reporting, and check rights for text, likeness, and voice. Make generated or synthetic presentation clear where appropriate, keep drafts private, and require an editor to approve the script and final output before any public release.
