Public-service videos: fact checks and version control

Public information needs to be understandable to its intended audience and accurate at the time of release. Assign content reviewers and identify the authoritative source version before filming.

Organise the information

Record the names, procedures, dates and instructions the film must communicate. Mark anything awaiting confirmation instead of treating a draft as final.

Plan images that help explain the service. Check permissions and private information in documents, screens and backgrounds, especially when filming real interactions.

Review the deliverables as published

Keep the script, captions, graphics and voice-over aligned when information changes. Each shortened or reformatted edit should preserve the context needed to understand the message.

Record who approved the release version and retain a clear list of files. If a procedure or contact detail changes later, that record makes it easier to identify which published versions need updating.
