Lock in the video specs before production starts. Resolution, duration, format. Client commits, you produce, payment settles on approval.
Client wants "just a small change" to a fully rendered 4K video. Each re-render takes hours. Five rounds later, you've burned your entire margin.
You skip the storyboard step to save time. Client hates the final product. Now you're re-doing everything from scratch for free.
You share the final render via WeTransfer. Client downloads it, uses it on their website. Invoice goes unpaid for months.
Holdy lets you define every detail upfront so the client can never move the goalposts.
Duration, resolution, format, number of scenes. All agreed before production. The client can't ask for a 2-minute video when they paid for 30 seconds.
Make storyboard approval a separate deliverable item. Client signs off before you start the expensive render work.
Set 2 revision rounds. Client can request edits within budget. After that, they accept or reject. No infinite render cycles.
Include or exclude source files (After Effects project, Premiere timeline) as explicit deliverables. No surprise requests for raw assets.
Storyboard for approval before final render
PDF or video animatic
Final video in MP4 (1080p, H.264), 60 seconds as agreed
Source project file (After Effects .aep or Premiere .prproj)
Thumbnail image for YouTube/social (PNG, 1920x1080)
2 revision rounds included. Deadline: 14 days.
Tip: Always include the storyboard as a separate deliverable. It prevents costly re-renders later.
Lock the specs, deliver with proof, get paid on approval.
