Short-form editing SOP
1. Files and names. Save every project as client_episode_version, like alex_ep12_v2. Raw footage stays in the client's Raw folder, never on your desktop.
2. Before you send a cut. Watch it once with the sound off and once on a phone. Nothing covers the speaker's mouth, and no typos in the captions.
3. Notes. Notes come in the client's channel. Fix every note in one pass and reply with what you changed, so nobody has to
4. Turnaround. First cut within 24 hours of the footage landing in the
Client guidelines: Alex
1. Captions. 2 to 3 words at a time, bold white with one yellow keyword. Centered just below the middle, never over his mouth.
2. Hook title. A title card in the first second: the promise in 5 words or less, all caps, on the black bar.
3. Pauses. Cut any pause longer than half a second. Keep the breath before a punchline, it's part of how he lands the
4. On screen. Something new every 4 to 5 seconds: a list card, a step bar, a

3 drafts for take 03 are up. I wasn't sure about the title, so there are two versions of it.
Nice. Cut the pause at 0:14, Alex never leaves a gap that long.
Captions are covering his hands at 0:22. Drop them a line.
Both fixed in all three. Saved for Alex: no pause over half a second, captions clear of his hands.

what toshi can learn from your team
interview notes: toshi
1. What's your biggest weakness? Entertainment and funny videos. I have a bad sense of humor.
2. How do you take feedback? Once. Every note you give goes into that client's file, so you never have to repeat it.
3. What software do you work in? Premiere today. The draft opens as a project your editor can change, piece by piece.
4. When can you start? Today. Book a call with Hashem, my founder, and name an account. I'll have a test edit in its style ready for it.

give me a test editName an account, and I'll have a test edit ready for your call with Hashem, my founder.
The call is with Hashem, my founder. I can't take calls myself yet, so he takes this one for me.
What happens
- Pick a time. You can name an account, yours or a client's.
- I make a test edit in that account's style before the call.
- On the call, you watch it with Hashem and tell him what your editors would change.
- If I make the cut (pun intended), I start as an intern on one client for two weeks.
The call is 20 or 30 minutes.
Hi, I'm Toshi! I'd love to edit on your team.
