Delivery Paperwork Guideline
An important part of the delivery is having all paperwork in order and completed. Only once delivered, Red Bull Media House will release the last payment for our partners. On this page, you'll find an overview of what needs to be delivered for specific aspects of production.
Credit Sheet
WHAT
Red Bull Media House does allow producers and production partners to produce credits within the following parameters:
- In accordance with industry standards
- In accordance with legal requirements
- As agreed in the individual Production Service Agreement
WHY: Presentation and automatic playout of complete and correct credits (internal/external)

Music Cue Sheet
WHAT
A Music Cue Sheet is a PDF that is generated for every music track that is used in an asset for any channel, to ensure the artist and track and the source is detailed for rights and licensing purposes.
Red Bull Media House has built innovative technology to distribute music royalties accurately. Those composers and producers used to boost your content should receive their fair share. But the system only works when your MUSIC CUE SHEETS are correct. Please support royalty fairness by filing accurate MCS
via the respective tool available in the RED BULL AUDIO LIBRARY.
No additional Excel file needs to be delivered. If the music is not from the Red Bull Audio Library, you still need to go to the site and use Create a Blank Template and fill in the information there. The same Music Cue Sheet pdf output will be produced.
WHY: Legal obligation
FILENAME: mcs-MIxxxx_Production
Always create Music Cue Sheets using the Red Bull Audio Library - even if you have not used any music from the Audio Library.
Upload EDL, XML and audio files to the MCS Tool or start with a blank cue sheet.
Edit your entries and add new cues manually if you have not used music from the Audio Library.

Transcript and Translation Sheet
WHAT
The Transcript and translation Sheet includes all spoken dialogue and its translation. It should be shown with time code in and out points for all dialogue, (optionally in English, Russian, German or French) in case the spoken dialogue is not one of the aforementioned languages in the original version.
WHY
It is used for distribution to 3rd party media, repurposing and generating subtitles for localization. The sheet is essential to produce different languages; therefore it must be completely accurate. It is also essential to create closed captions, therefore it must be delivered for every asset that will be produced.
Unless the asset is specifically created for a specific market, all translations should be to English for the widest reach.

Shotlist (incl. Clearance Sheet Info)
WHAT
Lists product placements in shot and the source of 3rd party footage, photographs and artwork. It is mainly used for legal purposes.
WHY
It is mandatory for content distributed to 3rd party media partners and agencies. The Shotlist is also used for internal repurposing, tagging and legal purposes.
