## THE PROBLEM

You're handing a project to another editor on your team. Maybe you're going on vacation, maybe the project is moving to a different phase, maybe the client relationship shifted. Either way, someone else needs to pick up where you left off, and they've never seen this footage before.

A clean handoff means more than sending a project file. The incoming editor needs to understand your bin structure, know which sequences are current, see your notes about problem clips, and find selects without re-watching everything. Most editors skip this prep because it takes one to two hours and feels like documentation rather than editing.

The result is predictable. The new editor spends their first half-day reverse-engineering your project organization, figuring out which of the 12 sequences is the latest version, and discovering through trial and error which clips have audio issues. That wasted time compounds, and it comes out of the project budget.

### WITHOUT WIDEFRAME

1–2 hours organizing and documenting for handoff

### WITH WIDEFRAME

Handoff-ready project structure generated automatically  
**80% TIME SAVED**

## HOW YOU SOLVE IT WITH WIDEFRAME

### 01

**Flag the handoff in Wideframe**  
Tell Wideframe you're preparing this project for another editor. The agent reviews your current project state, sequences, bins, selects, flagged issues, version history.

### 02

**Agent structures the project for handoff**  
Wideframe reorganizes bins with clear naming, labels current vs. archived sequences, and compiles notes from your analysis data, which clips have issues, which takes you preferred, what each sequence version represents.

### 03

**Export a handoff-ready .prproj**  
The exported Premiere project has a clean bin hierarchy, labeled sequences with version indicators, and markers with editorial notes at key decision points. Everything the next editor needs is inside the project file.

### 04

**New editor opens and starts working**  
Your colleague opens the project and immediately understands the structure. Current sequence is obvious, selects are organized, known issues are flagged. They start editing, not archaeology.
