01 — With Jo Woodford
Business Affairs
Full administration of your TV, radio, cinema and VOD commercials — from the first creative review through to a cleared, clock-numbered, broadcast-ready ad.
Clearance, contracts and delivery — handled end to end
Every commercial has to clear the same hurdles before it can go to air: the script, the cast, the music, the final cut. We manage all of it, so your production team can focus on the work itself.
- Clearcast script & copy clearance, including query resolution
- Casting briefs and artist / voiceover contracts
- Clock numbers and delivery via CARIA
- Music licensing and rights negotiation
- Radio, cinema and VOD clearance alongside TV
HOW WE WORK
From creative deck to broadcast
[Placeholder copy describing the step-by-step process a client can expect.]
01
Early review
[Placeholder] Creative decks are reviewed before client sign-off to flag anything likely to cause clearance problems later.
02
Casting & contracts
Casting briefs go out to agents, cast is confirmed, and artist / voiceover agreements are issued and signed.
03
CLEARCAST SUBMISSION
Scripts and rough cuts are submitted for clearance, with any queries (such as required legal supers) resolved directly.
04
Clocking & delivery
A clock number is issued and full delivery paperwork sent to broadcasters via CARIA, ready for transmission.
