1. Create one row per deliverable
A placement, language or message change should be visible in the output list. Agree which changes need a new edit, voiceover, graphic pass or review.
- Version ID / file name: ____________________
- Market and audience: ____________________
- Language for voiceover / on-screen text / captions: ____________________
- Channel, runtime, aspect ratio and receiving specification: ____________________
- Message, offer, end card and destination URL: ____________________
- Required delivery date and launch priority: ____________________
2. Record what changes from the master
A translated script alone does not define a finished language version. Check timings, terminology, graphics, music and the intended audience against the approved brief.
- Master reference and approved script version: ____________________
- Required local product, offer or wording changes: ____________________
- Pronunciation and terminology reference: ____________________
- Imagery and cultural review requirements: ____________________
- Captions, transcript or other agreed accessibility requirements: ____________________
- Any source assets or language capability still to confirm: ____________________
3. Make sign-off explicit
Name the person responsible for each type of review. Do not treat approval of one language or market as approval of all versions.
- Creative and brand owner: ____________________
- Product or claims reviewer: ____________________
- Qualified language reviewer: ____________________
- Market / cultural reviewer where needed: ____________________
- Consolidated feedback due and final sign-off due: ____________________
- Status: planned / in review / approved / needs changes / delivered: ____________________
4. Check the release package
Before delivery, compare the agreed list with the actual exports. Confirm the destination and version labels so the correct asset reaches the correct placement.
- Export name matches the approved version ID: ____________________
- Runtime, dimensions, audio and captions checked: ____________________
- Offer, end card and destination checked: ____________________
- Approval record and approved source version recorded: ____________________
- Delivery folder and person responsible for upload: ____________________
- Update trigger, such as a product, offer or approved wording change: ____________________
