--- Round 0 ---
[R0.1] Post-Production Supervisor (speak, public): Hi everyone, let's discuss the hybrid theatrical+streaming distribution package for our music documentary. To assess feasibility, I need to understand the planned release sequencing and exhibition expectations. Can we start with that?
[R0.2] Distribution Strategy Director (speak, public): The release window proposal is to have a 21-day theatrical run followed by SVOD on day 22. We have committed 350 screens with our theatrical partner, and they're taking a 45% studio share. We're also expecting a marketing commitment from the platform, which includes $900,000 in paid media and a trailer launch on June 12, 2026.
[R0.3] Business & Legal Affairs Counsel (speak, public): The proposed release plan involves some considerations from a legal and rights perspective. We have Guild and union obligations to consider, specifically SAG-AFTRA new media residuals at 3.6% of distributor gross. Can you both help me understand how the 21-day theatrical window followed by SVOD affects our contractual and residual obligations?

--- Round 1 ---
[R1.1] Post-Production Supervisor (speak, public): To address the release plan's feasibility, I need to confirm that we can deliver the required elements on time. Our master deliverables package includes a 4K HDR master and a 5.1 mix, and we're working on a localization package with captions in 6 languages and an M&E track. Can you clarify if there are any specific delivery requirements or timelines that we need to be aware of in the distribution terms?
[R1.2] Distribution Strategy Director (speak, public): To ensure we're on track, can you confirm if the post-production team is on schedule to meet the delivery deadline of September 15, 2026, and if there are any potential risks or bottlenecks in the technical delivery readiness that we should be aware of?
[R1.3] Business & Legal Affairs Counsel (speak, public): To assess the feasibility of the delivery deadline, I can share that we have 3 cues denied for music clearance, with replacements due in 14 days, and 7 outstanding appearance releases. Additionally, our Guild and union obligations include SAG-AFTRA new media residuals at 3.6% of distributor gross. Can you clarify if the distribution deal embeds any unusually aggressive economics or timing penalties that we should be aware of?

--- Round 2 ---
[R2.1] Post-Production Supervisor (speak, public): To address the delivery deadline and potential risks, our post schedule has picture lock on August 08, 2026, and final mix on September 02, 2026. We're working on a localization package with captions in 6 languages and an M&E track delivery. However, I need clarity on whether there are any punitive delivery consequences or timing penalties embedded in the distribution deal that we should be aware of, especially given our current post-production status.
[R2.2] Distribution Strategy Director (speak, public): To address the concerns about delivery consequences and timing penalties, I'm happy to discuss the general release plan aspects publicly. However, I believe sensitive topics like specific deal terms require a private discussion. Let's focus on confirming the post-production timeline and technical readiness for now. Post-Production Supervisor, can you confirm if the localization package and M&E track delivery are on track?
[R2.3] Business & Legal Affairs Counsel (speak, private to=Distribution Strategy Director): To better understand the potential risks and delivery consequences, I'd like to clarify that we have 7 outstanding appearance releases and 3 music cues pending replacement.
