Video file handoff checklist

How to use it

1. Download the file and keep an editable copy for this recording.
2. Fill in the project details, then work through the checks before moving to the next step.
3. Save the completed version with your footage so the next person can see your decisions.

Use the checks that fit this recording. A checklist records a review; it does not replace watching and listening to the final video.
