Sharing a project
- Get their account ID. Everyone's is on their Account page, with a Copy button. It never changes.
- Open your project and go to Sharing, at the bottom. Only the project's owner sees it.
- Paste the ID, pick Can view or Can edit, and press Share.
- The project appears for them under Shared with You on their Projects page.
You can switch anyone between view only and edit, or remove them, from the same list at any time.
Who can do what
| Can view | Can edit | Owner | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Listen to takes, download the project | Yes | Yes | Yes |
| Read and post comments | Yes | Yes | Yes |
| Change scripts, lines and voices; generate and save takes | No | Yes | Yes |
| Rename or delete the project, change who it's shared with | No | No | Yes |
Picking roles
- Clients and stakeholders: Can view. They listen and comment, and nothing changes by accident.
- Subject-matter experts checking a course: Can view, with notes in the comments.
- Co-writers and editors who fix lines themselves: Can edit.
- A performer whose voice is cloned: consider Can view, so they can hear how their voice is used.
Running a review in the comments
Every project has a Discussion & Comments section, newest first, open to everyone who can see the project. Reviews go faster when notes are specific:
Episode 3, line 12: more surprise on "you're here?"
Episode 3, line 30: "Siobhan" mispronounced, should be Shiv-awn
Episode 3, lines 41 to 44: a bit fast, can we slow the narrator?Line numbers match the numbers on the script page and the files in the download, so everyone is talking about the same thing.
Agree on a few things up front
- Who saves final takes. A saved line is locked. Decide whether editors save as they go, or one person signs off.
- Who owns each voice's settings. Changing a voice's style affects every line generated afterwards, by anyone.
- Who changes the cast. Replacing a voice's clip changes new takes for everyone.
- Where the pronunciation list lives. One comment with every respelled name in it saves repeated mistakes.
Consent applies to collaborators' voices too
If a teammate records a voice for the project, their agreement should be as clear as anyone else's: what it's for, for how long, and what happens to it if they leave. See the consent template.
When someone leaves
Remove them from Sharing and they lose access straight away. If someone deletes their own account, they're taken out of every project shared with them; their own projects are deleted with it.
