- Evaluate AI-generated edits for editorial quality, pacing, continuity, audio synchronization, color accuracy, title safety, and delivery requirements.
- Provide structured written feedback on creative and technical issues in AI-generated outputs.
- Develop editing guidelines, evaluation rubrics, and quality-control standards.
