How to Request Edit Now to Send Your Media to MarketScale for Editing

In MarketScale, any media can be sent in to edit and polish with just a few easy clicks.

Once you have created media in MarketScale, if you want to send it to editing, open the Editing room by clicking Media Studio in the bottom right of the media card.



 

Now that you're in the Editing room, you can leave timestamped comments, attach files, and collaborate with your teammates to leave comprehensive notes and feedback for MarketScale to polish up your media into a professional end product. Note that all comments are associated with the timestamp of the video, and form a checklist on the right hand sidebar.

 

Once you've fully "proofed" your media, click Request Edit Now in the bottom right corner to submit your media to MarketScale for editing.

 

A modal will pop up on your screen with questions that will help MarketScale to fulfill your order: 

 

NOTE: use AI Assistant to automatically complete the following steps! 

Otherwise, you can manually answer the following questions:

  • Video type: select the type that most closely matches the purpose of your media.
  • Orientation: vertical, or horizontal? When in doubt, choose Landscape - but Portrait is best for Instagram Reels, TikTok, and YouTube Shorts.
  • Publishing destination: where are you primarily planning to use this media? 
  • Craft your clip: how do you want your media to start and end, and is there anything key to include in the middle?
  • Complimentary clips: with your direction, MarketScale will include complimentary stock footage from our extensive libraries.
  • Vibe check: what is the tone of the video? What will sound best to your audience?
  • Video length: about how long we should make your media?
  • Examples: if you have a video you want us to emulate, link it!

 

As you reach the bottom, you'll encounter the most important part of the Request Edit Now process: your Brand Book. Select the one that most closely matches your media. Learn more about Brand Books and how to build them here.

NOTE: Often, the first Brand Book (selected by default) is your general Org branding. When in doubt, select that.

Finally, add any Additional Notes and Files you may have forgotten up to this point, and click Let's Create in the bottom middle of the modal.

 

Congratulations! You have successfully completed your edit request and the media is now with MarketScale for processing and fulfillment. You will see that the status indicator of your media is now adjusted to In Editing, and your order direction is included in the comment timeline on the right side bar: 

 

MarketScale typically completes requested edits in 1-2 business days, so look out for your email notification that your media is ready and check back at the same URL to see your edited version. 

And remember, this same process applies if more polish is needed. Just pop the Editing room back open, proof, request, and then sit back and relax as MarketScale polishes media. The Editing room, at the same URL, is now a one-stop-shop for multiple version proofing and editing.
