How services actually work
Legal and brand approvals for corporate video in Trinidad—what to schedule, not what to hope
Post cannot absorb unlimited review cycles without blowing delivery dates. Strong programmes name approvers, parallel paths for urgent frames, and **non-negotiable clearance rules** for claims, logos, music, and on-camera participants—especially when industries are regulated or unionized.
Claims and substantiation
Product and performance language may need evidence files. Production should not lock supers until claims reviewers sign off on language variants.
Talent and releases
Employees, customers, and minors have different release requirements. Missing paperwork blocks publish—not “minor post fixes.”
Music and stock
Commercial licences differ by channel and territory. “We’ll find music later” is how projects stall at export.
Brand systems
Fonts, colour-safe supers, and partner logo lockups should be attached to the brief as governed assets—not reinvented on set.
