  • Follow standardized formatting guidelines for scene summaries and beat-by-beat breakdowns.
  • Re-watch clips as needed to ensure accuracy and completeness.
  • Maintain consistency and quality across a high volume of scene descriptions.
  • Work independently and asynchronously on your own schedule.
