🎬 Video & Motion Graphics

Deliver frames, not promises.

Lock in the video specs before production starts. Resolution, duration, format. Client commits, you produce, payment settles on approval.

The problem

Video work is easy to exploit.

Revision hell

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.

No storyboard approval

You skip the storyboard step to save time. Client hates the final product. Now you're re-doing everything from scratch for free.

Delivered, never paid

You share the final render via WeTransfer. Client downloads it, uses it on their website. Invoice goes unpaid for months.

The solution

Lock specs, deliver with proof.

Holdy lets you define every detail upfront so the client can never move the goalposts.

Specs locked at payment

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.

Storyboard as a deliverable

Make storyboard approval a separate deliverable item. Client signs off before you start the expensive render work.

Revision budget, not unlimited rounds

Set 2 revision rounds. Client can request edits within budget. After that, they accept or reject. No infinite render cycles.

Source files on your terms

Include or exclude source files (After Effects project, Premiere timeline) as explicit deliverables. No surprise requests for raw assets.
