CREATIVE REVIEW · Workflow idea

Make a compelling short video without presenting an invented scene as real footage.

For work involving cleared visual references, proposed motion scenes, and channel-specific release details, confirm permission and check the facts before taking the next step. Prepare a short video draft and release details from an approved creative brief. Realistic motion can imply events or endorsements that never happened, and references may be protected. Confirm rights and likeness consent, label altered or fictional scenes where appropriate, inspect every frame and caption for unsafe content, and require the creator to approve each final destination before release.

Document rights, consent, and attribution

Track licenses, subject permissions, commercial scope, and approved destinations.

Decide when fictional, altered, or illustrative media needs a clear audience-facing label.

Restrict access and retention

Keep originals and drafts private and remove unnecessary copies when their purpose ends.
