Project Memory — [reel name]

Read this at the start of every session on this project. Update it after every review gate. Its purpose: never make the human repeat feedback, and carry learnings across batches.

Reel spec

• Story / goal:
• Music track + BPM:
• Target duration:
• Grade: (gritty / clean / custom tweaks)
• Natural audio: (off / mixed at N dB)

Human decisions (do not re-litigate)

• Approved hook clip:
• Approved closer clip:
• Rejected clips + why (from contact-sheet review):
• Clip order / exclusions:
• Trim adjustments requested:
• Gate 1 edit mode: (chat edits / NLE round trip — if waiting on an edited fcpxml, note it here and do NOT touch cut_plan.json)

Feedback log
