Case Study: Audrey's Children
“Aimee and her team at Image Approvals are truly fantastic. They made the process seamless from start to finish. They were incredibly communicative throughout, and ensured everything was delivered at the completion of the project in an organized fashion as promised. I will absolutely be working with them again in the future! Highly recommend.“

Key Project Wins
File Organisation
~2,000 images across 16 days of unit stills plus a full gallery shoot, audited and organised.
Made images easy to find and identify.
Ensured all RAW and JPG images were properly handled and accounted for.
We handled this groundwork efficiently - ensuring the material was structured and ready for next steps.
Identifying Issues
Our technical image team identified and resolved discrepancies in image counts to ensure the client had no missing files.
We don't just organise your files, we fully audit them so that your production doesn't silently lose amazing assets you've invested so much in to capture.
Quick Uploads
To avoid delays in a tight post-production window, all images were tagged, uploaded, and made available to cast within five working days of receiving the files.
High Approval Rate
Six cast members were involved in approvals, and with our platform streamlining the process, 82% of images were approved - giving the client a broad, usable range without bottlenecks or repeated follow-ups.
Fast Delivery
Once approvals were complete, the final, fully organised set was returned to the client in just four working days - saving internal teams significant time and effort in preparing files for use.
Their Pain:
- A large cast required managing, with six members contractually entitled to review and approve their images.
- The submitted images included file count discrepancies, making it difficult for the team to verify whether all expected assets were accounted for.
- The director needed visibility over the stills, with the ability to review and exclude images that didn’t align with the production's needs.
- With multiple stakeholders involved, the team needed a straightforward way for post-production to track approvals in real time without creating delays or confusion.
✅ Our Solution:
- Cast approval thresholds are automatically enforced within the platform, ensuring contractual limits can't be exceeded and eliminating the need for manual checks.
- We reviewed all stills across multiple submissions, identified missing files, and ensured the final set was complete and accurate.
- We created an additional account for the director, with intuitive navigation so she could easily review and exclude images as needed.
- We granted Viewer access to the post-production team, allowing them to monitor approvals in real time without disrupting the cast's workflow.
