Collection brief
A clear first conversation starts with what your team wants to observe. Use this checklist to prepare a custom AI data recording discussion.
BEFORE THE MEETING
Share what you know and mark what still needs a decision. Reference clips, examples of unusable footage and a rough task list can be more helpful than a long general brief.

Explain what your model or research team needs to distinguish. Is the important signal the full task sequence, a hand-object interaction or a particular variation?
02 / THE BRIEF
Choose the starting condition, the steps that matter and the visible end condition. Identify examples that should be excluded from the collection.
03 / THE BRIEF
Discuss demonstrator skills, setting, objects, tools and viewpoint. Identify framing or equipment requirements, and separate essential signals from optional ones.
04 / THE BRIEF
Explain which differences between examples matter: objects, layouts, task order or conditions. Discuss volume after the team has a shared definition of an accepted example.
05 / THE BRIEF
Bring an existing schema if you have one. Agree the labels, timing conventions, metadata, quality review and file organisation needed by the receiving team.
06 / THE BRIEF
Share the preferred timeline, budget range and review contacts. A focused pilot can make open decisions concrete before a wider campaign.
Tell us what you want recorded. We can discuss the skill, environment, camera setup, annotation and budget in a scoping meeting.
