In this episode of The Offset Podcast, we’re discussing strategies for managing client review sessions - both in person and remote.  The review session sounds straightforward on paper, but it can be a complicated balancing act of moving things along, addressing changes, and keeping everyone happy.  

Some of the specifics we discuss in this episode include:

• Managing both in-person and remote review sessions
• The importance of ‘knowing’ the show - content, characters, etc
• Modulating small talk and reading the room
• Leveraging markers & notes for remaining tasks to accomplish & notes to self
• Anticipating problems, tangents, and pushback
• Setup your grading pipeline to make changes and comparisons easy for the client
• The power of making choices and changes visual 
• Documenting and tracking changes for consistency and completion 
• Making sure the technology works - audio, networking, lighting, passwords etc
• Having a backup strategy  - rendering out intermediate masters, duplicate projects/timelines
• Having clearly defined goals for the review session & a post-review plan
