And it can be expensive. As a matter of fact, in our post on video production, we estimated that it costs between $1,000 and $100,000 to create a video.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To avoid overspending, it&#8217;s important to have clear terms outlined before, during, or after production.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That\u2019s where a video review strategy comes into play.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-video aligncenter\"><video autoplay controls loop muted src=\"https:\/\/assets.markup.io\/app\/uploads\/2023\/03\/video-review-love.mp4\" playsinline><\/video><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">GIF Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/giphy.com\/gifs\/bestfriends-mental-health-how-are-you-awareness-o7ZDUPtDofoNFsXpa8\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Giphy<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019ll help identify problems the client might have so they\u2019re dealt with on time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can think of a video review strategy as a fail-safe system that comes into play if something goes wrong or even to prevent it from happening.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Having one will help you get&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>A clear overview of the project<\/strong>: You\u2019ll understand what matters most to the client and how to approach it without compromising quality.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A comprehensive video review strategy gets every stakeholder involved, so you\u2019ll have fresh pairs of eyes providing different perspectives on the video.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>All of these ensure you have a professional end product.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Consolidated feedback<\/strong>: A review system ensures video production teams don\u2019t have to deal with conflicting feedback from multiple stakeholders.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Instead, one person, preferably the project manager, collates and filters every piece of feedback, so the production team has a streamlined workflow.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The secret to a good video? Reviews and feedback. Let&#8217;s discuss the different stages of video reviewing in the next section.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"steps\"><strong><br><\/strong><strong>Video review process: 5 stages of video reviewing<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>You know how video production is split into different phases? Each of those phases typically includes its own review process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are various stages during production where you need to pause and request revisions before you proceed.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Let\u2019s look at them in detail.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Stage #1: Scripting<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The video review process begins here.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That\u2019s because scripts define the outcome of the end product.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The script is the blueprint for a video, so you want to align what\u2019s written with your client&#8217;s vision.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You also need to ensure that the style suits the client\u2019s brand and can grab their audience\u2019s attention instantly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-right\"><em>Can\u2019t I just use the <\/em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.markup.io\/blog\/what-is-a-creative-brief\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><em>creative brief<\/em><\/a><em> as a guide instead?<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Well, you can, but it\u2019s always better to have the client review the script since they\u2019re probably more familiar with their audience than you are.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Stage #2: Audio editing<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Audio is another vital aspect of video production, so it\u2019s important you get clients and stakeholders involved at this stage.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.audacyinc.com\/state-of-audio\/fall-2022\/?utm_medium=site&amp;utm_source=toute&amp;utm_campaign=soaf22\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">According to Audacy\u2019s State of Audio report<\/a>, audio has been known to trigger emotions, trust, and connection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So you want to find out from reviewers if there\u2019s a sound used in the video&nbsp; that can be replaced by silence. Or if the audio evokes the emotions your clients want their audience to feel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This kind of feedback is better experienced than described.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Stage #3: Rough cut<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>You can also get stakeholders involved after the first version of the video is ready. Here you want them to check the scenes for continuity and ensure what you\u2019ve done so far is in sync with the initial storyline.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Upon reviewing it, they can let you know if clips need to be trimmed or cut entirely or if the video communicates the right idea to the audience.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Involving them at this stage and when new versions are created is another opportunity to get their thoughts on the music, sound, rhythm, and editing.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Stage #4: Final cut and editing<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Even after you\u2019ve implemented all of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.markup.io\/blog\/feedback-loop-halloween\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">client\u2019s feedback<\/a> on the rough cut, you still need to ask them to review it again.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s better to spend some more time video editing and making iterations than to begin the process again.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You might have overlooked something when implementing their feedback, or they forgot to make important suggestions. So, get stakeholders involved before you publish the video.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Stage #5: Launching<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>When you\u2019re ready to hit the launch button, carry everyone along to dot the i\u2019s and cross the t\u2019s.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s tempting just to go ahead and publish after the possibly lengthy back and forth on review. But it\u2019s always great to be on the safe side.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As stated earlier, fresh pairs of eyes can provide new insights you might otherwise have overlooked.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">***<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It&#8217;s important to keep in mind that implementing client feedback is an ongoing process. You should request reviews throughout the entire <a href=\"https:\/\/www.markup.io\/blog\/video-production-workflow\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">video production process<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At the same time, there are some best practices to remember.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Let\u2019s take a look at four of them next.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"best-practices\"><strong>4 video review best practices<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>How you respond to reviews from clients and stakeholders matters a lot in video production.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Especially when you have to deal with <em>multiple<\/em> reviewers. \ud83d\ude31<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here are some pointers to help you stay on track:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>1. Watch closely and focus on essential elements<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>To make sure you don&#8217;t get overwhelmed by a flood of revisions when implementing a client&#8217;s feedback, focus on these key elements:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Graphics<\/strong>: Does the overall design or video outlook reflect the brand\u2019s feel?<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Messaging<\/strong>: Is the script successfully delivering the intended message to the client\u2019s audience?<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Mood<\/strong>: What kind of feelings do the video and audio elements evoke?<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Shots<\/strong>: Do the visuals you\u2019ve shot match what\u2019s been said or the messaging you\u2019re trying to get across?<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Branding<\/strong>: Is the video project aligned with the client\u2019s branding guidelines?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Pay attention to these elements during the different rounds of video reviews, so you\u2019re clear on which feedback to prioritize.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>2. Consolidate feedback for editors<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>This applies to team leads or project managers who are intermediaries between clients and video editors.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When you receive feedback from stakeholders, it\u2019s easy to forward everything as it comes and let the editors figure it out.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>They are then left trying to understand which comments should be prioritized.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here\u2019s what you can do for them instead:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Go through the reviews&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Categorize them in a sequential order&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Identify&nbsp; &nbsp; contradictory feedback and reach out to stakeholders to figure out a way forward&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Eliminate vague comments&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>This way, you can present consolidated feedback to editors with clear instructions they can act on.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>3. Have everyone on board from the start<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>After getting the creative brief from clients, video production teams must wait until the rough cut is ready before including stakeholders, right?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Wrong!&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While that might seem like the logical thing to do, it\u2019s reasonable to involve them in the production process early on.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This way, you\u2019ll avoid starting all over again if the stakeholders have different ideas for the project.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019ll also help you stick to the budget if everyone involved shares their ideas before, during, and after the production.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>4. Set a realistic timeline and schedule<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>When working on the video project or reviews, don\u2019t underestimate how long it\u2019ll take to complete it. Set realistic due dates and inform clients about them.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Preferably, you want to set a longer timeline to have enough time to implement the feedback. This way, you\u2019ll even get to deliver before the deadline.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To have a successful review process, you\u2019ll need video review tools.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>They\u2019ll help you request, document, and streamline the feedback you get from stakeholders.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Essentially, all the good stuff is in a single tool, which we\u2019ll unpack in the next section.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"tools\"><strong>Best video review tools&nbsp;<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Having software to help review videos\u2014be they product-centered tutorials or funny cat videos\u2014will no doubt make life easy for you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But with several of them on the market, how do you find the right one?&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We&#8217;ve collected the best review tools to spare you the stress.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And the first on our list is the one and only MarkUp.io. \ud83e\udd73<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Tool #1: MarkUp.io<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.markup.io\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">MarkUp.io<\/a> is a cloud-based <a href=\"https:\/\/www.markup.io\/blog\/creative-collaboration\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">visual collaboration<\/a> tool that allows users to request revisions on their video content in an easy way.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"880\" height=\"470\" src=\"https:\/\/assets.markup.io\/app\/uploads\/2023\/03\/video-review-markup-io.png\" alt=\"MarkUp.io homepage\" class=\"wp-image-201128\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.markup.io\/app\/uploads\/2023\/03\/video-review-markup-io.png 880w, https:\/\/www.markup.io\/app\/uploads\/2023\/03\/video-review-markup-io-300x160.png 300w, https:\/\/www.markup.io\/app\/uploads\/2023\/03\/video-review-markup-io-768x410.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 880px) 100vw, 880px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With MarkUp.io, video production teams can say goodbye to back-and-forth emails with stakeholders and hunting for timestamps to get reviews.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Users just need to upload their video file on the platform and share it with their team members, clients, or stakeholders to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.markup.io\/blog\/best-web-annotation-tools-for-chrome\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">start annotating<\/a>.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This way, production teams can get frame-accurate contextual feedback across the different stages of video reviewing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>MarkUp.io features<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>MarkUp.io helps users improve their <a href=\"http:\/\/www.markup.io\/blog\/document-review-and-approval-process\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">review process<\/a> using features such as:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Frame-accurate comments on videos<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Annotations with click-and-comment functionality<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.markup.io\/blog\/more-loom-less-zoom-fix-feedback-loop\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Loom integration <\/a>for creating video feedback<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Creating comment threads&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>File attachments<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Tagging team members with @mentions<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>MarkUp.io pricing<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>If you run a solo video production business and only create short videos, you can use MarkUp.io for free.
