Reviewing and Commenting on a Video

Once you receive an email with a link to review a video, you are ready to begin the reviewing process. As you review the video, you can provide your feedback via comments while also seeing comments left by other reviewers.

To access the video in the reviewing module, use the link in the email invitation that you received. We recommend bookmarking this link for easy and quick access.

Managing Comments

The comments that you and other reviewers add to the video are displayed in chronological order in the comment panel. When you want to track or address the comments that are being left on the video, you need to access the reviewing module via the link that you received for reviewing the video. As mentioned above, we recommend bookmarking this link for easy and quick access.

Clicking a comment will jump the video to the exact place and timestamp at which the comment was created.

Working with Tasks

When a comment requires action, you can add a task to the comment and assign it to the relevant user. This is especially useful when you have multiple reviewers and many action items. Once the task is completed, it can be marked as done. By assigning tasks and updating their status, you can easily track the progress of the action items as you bring your video to completion.

Assigning a task

1.	After typing the comment requiring action, click Create task. ▶ You can also create a task without typing a comment by clicking once in the field and then clicking Create task.
2.	Click the arrow in the lower right corner.
3.	Click the down arrow by Task and then select Assign.
4.	Select the person that you want to assign the task to. ▶ The person you assign the task to does not have to be the recipient of the comment. They can be two different people.
5.	Click the X to close the window.
	The task is assigned and the person assigned with the task receives an email notification, similar to the example below.
	The task is also displayed in the comment panel.

Marking a task as done

1.	Locate the comment with the relevant task in the comment panel.
2.	Click the down arrow by your name and then select Mark as done.
