Review video frame by frame

Video feedback that lands on the exact frame

Upload a video, pause where something is off, and pin a comment to that moment. Every comment carries its timestamp, so editors go straight to the right frame instead of scrubbing for it.

What you get

Everything video feedback gives you, at a glance

Pause on the frame that is wrong and annotate the video right there, so motion, timing, and edits get feedback as precise as everything else.

Timestamped comments

Each comment shows the moment it was left at. Click the timestamp and the video opens at that frame.

The same pin-and-comment flow works on stills, storyboards, and PDF documents, so every asset in a campaign can be reviewed in one place.

Overview

What is video feedback in Commento?

Video feedback lets you comment in a video at the exact moment and spot that needs work. You pause on a frame, click the part of the picture you mean, and leave a comment that carries its timestamp.

Commento works as a video commenting tool for editors, motion designers, and marketing teams who need precise notes from clients and colleagues without sending files back and forth.

The problem it solves

Video notes usually look like "at about 1:20 the logo feels late" in an email. The editor scrubs to find the moment, guesses which logo, and hopes they read the timing right.

A timestamped, pinned comment removes the guesswork. One click on the timestamp opens the video at that frame, and the pin and drawing show exactly what the note is about.

Step by step

How do you comment on a video?

Here is the full commenting video workflow, from upload to the final resolved note.

Step 01

Upload the video

Create a new project and drop the video into the upload area, or click to browse. Common formats your browser can play, such as MP4, work best.

Step 02

Play, then pause on the frame

Watch the cut and pause the moment something needs to change. The comment you leave will be tied to that point in the video.

Tip: Pause a beat before the problem frame when commenting on timing, so the editor sees the lead-in too.

Step 03

Click the spot and write your comment

Click the part of the frame you mean, such as a title, a product shot, or a transition, and write what should change. Mention a teammate with @ if they need to see it.

Open the annotation tools to circle, box, or sketch on the frame.

Step 04

Share the review link

Copy the review link from Share this project. Clients watch in their browser, type their name, and comment. Nobody downloads the file.

Step 05

Jump to each note and resolve it

Click a comment's timestamp to open the video at that moment, make the edit, and resolve the comment. Upload the new cut as a new project for the next round.
