• Maintain version control and accurate file labeling throughout review and approval cycles.
• Prepare and deliver final assets in required formats and on schedule, communicating risks or missing inputs early.

Creative Collaboration & Quality

• Partner with the Lead Video Producer and creative stakeholders to interpret briefs, storyboards, scripts, and feedback.
• Coordinate with copywriters, designers, photographers, and marketers to integrate approved messaging and visual elements.
