Revisions
```Minor revisions are included where specified above. Script changes, pickups caused by revised client copy, or substantial changes to an approved recording may require an additional fee depending on the scope of the work.
Revision requirements are confirmed before production so that both sides have a clear understanding of what is included in the project.
```Directed Sessions
```Directed sessions can be accommodated through commonly used online conferencing platforms. If a client requires a specific connection method or recording platform, that requirement can be discussed when the project is quoted.
Any additional directed-session or connection costs will be identified in the quote before the project begins.
