2) Individual editorial review via video call (or email correspondence as an alternative):
This is for a more personal experience via video call, and allows for some questions to be made should you have any about what has been said about your editorial.
Our editorial team will have a look at your editorial and give their constructive criticism (what could have been better, what is good about the editorial, what should be changed in the retouching etc.). The review will be presented in the form of a document. You will then be given a few days to think everything through and come up with any questions about the review. The review process will end with a video call with our Editor, where you will be able to ask your questions and personally go through the editorial with him. This type of editorial review allows for a more conversational style and gives you a chance to argue/defend your own opinion against any points that may be made by the reviewer and also allow you to ask for further explanation if you do
not understand something that has been said.
If you are unable or unwilling to do this via a video call, we can do it via email
correspondence instead.
