Guides & tools for client video work
The guides
A client job goes wrong in three places, more or less in this order: getting the files to them, getting them to say yes, and getting paid for it. Pick whichever is costing you this week.
How to send large video files to a client
What to export, how long the upload really takes, and the four ways to hand over 40 GB — with the catch in each one.
How to get a client to approve a video edit
Why edits stall in round four, the process that ends them, and the emails to send — including the one that asks for sign-off.
How to invoice a video client
What goes on the invoice, how to structure deposits and terms, and the one change that does more for cash flow than every reminder email combined.
Free tools
No sign-up, no email address, and nothing you type into them leaves your browser. Use them and close the tab.
Deciding between tools instead?
The comparison pages cover Frame.io, Dropbox Replay and WeTransfer for client work — each one including what that product does better than we do.

Free to start. Frame-accurate review, no account for your client, and the invoice on the same page as the cut — paid into your own Stripe account.
