Before you start

Confirm booking access, studio location, your plan’s production allowance and any additional cost with your MarketScale contact. A physical studio session is different from an online recording room or an onsite crew booking.

Steps

  1. Open Bookings and choose Studio to open Book a studio. Review the studio’s location, capacity and setup before selecting it.

  2. In Schedule, set People on camera and Recording length, then choose a date and available Start time (Central). New sessions use 2, 3 or 4 hours. Check Central time rather than assuming your computer’s local timezone.

  3. Check the entire time window. Sessions must start by 2:30 p.m. Central and finish by 5 p.m. A 3-hour session must start by 2 p.m.; a 4-hour session by 1 p.m. Choose only a slot that the schedule offers.

  4. Continue to Details. Under Who’s in the session, add participants and their roles. Add title, company and LinkedIn context where relevant so the crew can prepare.

  5. Under About your production, choose What are we making? and complete Describe your production with at least 30 characters. Example: “Record two engineers demonstrating three installation checks for our distributor training library.”

  6. Add Talking points and Key messages and must-capture shots. Under What you need back, describe Pieces and length, Where it will run, Aspect ratios and Needed by when relevant. Example: “One three-minute walkthrough and three portrait clips under 60 seconds.” Confirm a time-critical delivery date with your contact.

  7. Provide set direction and Inspiration material. If LED wall backdrop is offered for your studio, open LED wall specs and follow that studio’s actual requirements. Use an approved asset or link; the crew can help when no backdrop is ready.

  8. Recheck studio, date, Central time, duration, people and brief. Choose Submit booking once and wait while Submitting… is shown. Read whether the result is confirmed or pending approval before treating the session as confirmed.

  9. Keep the booking reference and review the submitted session details. Check the participant list, talking points and calendar information before the session. Use available booking actions for changes, or contact your MarketScale lead with the reference.

Check the result

The booking shows the intended studio, date, time, duration and production details, with a clear confirmed or pending-approval state. A requested delivery date is not a guaranteed turnaround.

If something does not work

  • The slot was taken during submission: Studio returns you to Schedule and retains the other details. Choose another offered time or date and recheck the booking before resubmitting.

  • Submit booking is disabled: complete required production and participant information, including the 30-character description minimum.

  • The request is pending approval: wait for the approval outcome and contact your MarketScale lead if your schedule depends on it.

  • Submission is uncertain: check whether the booking exists before creating another. Send your contact the studio, date/time and displayed error.
