How to give your video editor timestamped feedback
Short answer: Send the cut as a review link, pause where something's wrong, and leave the note on that frame. In Flask you can just talk through the video instead: each recording becomes separate comments at the right timestamps, with a transcript your editor can tick off.
Leave the note on the frame
- Send the cut as a review link. Upload an export from any editor (DaVinci Resolve, Final Cut, Premiere, or a render out of an AI pipeline), or paste a public or unlisted YouTube link and review that directly. Share the Flask link. Reviewers watch with no account and comment after a one-click sign-in, free, on every plan.
- Pause where something's wrong. Leave the note on that frame. A typed comment is pinned to the timestamp, the same basic loop every video review tool offers.
- Or talk through the video. In Flask that recording is the comment. You talk through the video, scrub, draw on frames, share your screen, and the AI splits it into separate comments, each at the right timestamp with a title, tags, and a transcript. Your editor gets a filterable checklist, not a 20-minute video to scrub through. Typed comments still work.
- Hand the notes to Premiere, if you cut there. Flask exports comments to Premiere as XML markers. That is a file handoff, not a live panel inside the timeline. If comments appearing inside the Premiere timeline is essential, that is a Frame.io advantage, covered on the Flask vs Frame.io page.
If an AI agent is the one making the next cut, the same timestamped comments are what it reads. That workflow is video review for AI agents.
Frequently asked questions
- How do I give my video editor timestamped feedback?
- Send the cut as a review link, pause where something's wrong, and leave the note on that frame. In Flask you can just talk through the video instead: each recording becomes separate comments at the right timestamps, with a transcript your editor can tick off.
- Can I talk through the video instead of typing each note?
- Yes. In Flask you talk through the video, scrub, draw on frames and share your screen, and the AI splits that recording into separate comments, each at the right timestamp with a title, tags and a transcript. Typed comments still work.
- Can I get those comments into Premiere?
- Flask exports comments to Premiere as XML markers. It does not put a live panel inside the Premiere timeline.
- Do clients need an account to leave timestamped notes?
- They watch from the shared link with no account and leave comments after a one-click sign-in. Reviewers are free on every plan and never take a paid seat.
