Editorial Package

Workflow

1. Read the standalone contract, editorial package rules, edit plan, shot briefs, generated-media map if present, voice cues, music cues, sound cues, and screenplay dialogue.
2. Write 05_post/editorial_manifest.json.
3. Map every timeline event to stable scene, shot, voice, music, and sound IDs where applicable.
4. Record placeholders and missing media explicitly rather than inventing files.
5. Create 05_post/subtitles.srt when dialogue or captions require subtitles and timing is sufficiently known.
6. Update 05_post/cue_sheet.csv with music and sound placements.
7. Keep paths project-relative.
8. Do not fabricate an editor-private project format. Use mlt-export only when standard MLT interchange is requested.
9. If the endpoint is an actual finished film, pass the reconciled editorial state to audio-master and timeline-assembly.

Done

A human editor or the native finishing layer can assemble the project from the portable manifest and identify every missing element without consulting the original chat.
