Introduction

The first step in collaborating on a video is to send the video to others for review. Both SundaySky users and those without access to the SundaySky platform can review a video.

The video that you send is a "snapshot" of the video at the specific time and date on which it was sent. If you make changes to the video in the platform after sending it for review, those changes are not reflected in the video that others have received. To see the changes that you have made, you'll need to send a new version for review. There is no limit to the number of times that you can send the same video for review.

After a video is sent for review, a history is created. When you access this history, you'll see a list of all the past reviews. By each review version, you'll be able to see to whom the video was sent.

Managing Reviews

After you send a video for review, you can access the Manage Reviews option by one of the following ways:

All the reviews that you initiated or were invited to are displayed (each one in a separate row). To access any one of the reviews, click anywhere in the relevant row.

For each review, the following information is displayed:

a.

The video thumbnail, at the time the review was sent.
▶ If the video sent is based on a viewer profile, the viewer profile name appears by the thumbnail. Hovering over the information icon Information_icon.png displays the data that was included in the video content.
▶ If the video does not include data, the information icon is not displayed.
b.

The date on which the review was sent. This column can be sorted by newest or oldest using the arrow at the top of the column.
c.

The reviewers to whom the video was sent. Hovering over an avatar displays the email address of the reviewer.
