Take the stress out of talent approvals
Welcome to Image Approvals! We streamline the process of managing talent photo kill rights for film and TV productions.
Our user-friendly web app, for desktop and mobile, makes it easy to track and cap talent kill rates, manage the approvals process, and export PDF contact sheets of approved images.
We even offer a full photo-lab service for those who want us to take care of everything from receiving images from your photographer, DAM management such as curating, editing, renaming, captioning and more through to delivering the final stills package to your distributors.
Join the dozens of productions now choosing to work with Image Approvals to take the stress out of managing your stills delivery needs!

“Aimee and her team at Image Approvals are truly fantastic. They made the process seamless from start to finish. They were incredibly communicative throughout, and ensured everything was delivered at the completion of the project in an organized fashion as promised. I will absolutely be working with them again in the future! Highly recommend.” ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
I have to say I don’t know what we would have done without you! Your attention to detail and organizational skills helped to streamline the approvals process greatly and certainly made it much less painful for us and our cast! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
“The Image Approvals service was such a life saver. They helped us unravel our unit photography into manageable folders that were easy for us and talent to navigate. Aimee’s team were patient as we went through the process and gave us guidance throughout. They are incredibly good value for money and I would work with them again in a heartbeat. Thank you Aimee and team!” ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Clean easy-to-use interface
No need to download and learn complex software; our platform is clean, desktop and mobile optimised, and easy to use.
Each cast member is allocated their own unique account allowing them to browse photographs by production day, and keep track of which images they’ve viewed, are yet to view, and have killed. New images uploaded to the platform appear immediately, avoiding the need to repeatedly send new share links or contact sheets.
Actors can browse images by thumbnail, or by one image at a time. Our one-click-kill process speeds up the image review process, reducing the number of clicks (or touches) required to go through the process. Should a photograph be killed accidentally, then there is the option to navigate backwards and un-kill the image.
Once an actor has finished reviewing the day, they can mark it as done, allowing you to keep track of the process, ensuring the process is completed on time.
Keep track of kill counts, solo and group
We keep track of image kill counts so that you don’t have too.
Actors see a simple breakdown showing them how many images they appear in, how many images they are allowed to kill, and what percentage of that kill allowance they’ve used.
Agents, publicists, or producers overseeing the Image Approvals process have a more advanced kill allowance view. This advanced view allows them to see not only their own kill allowance but the kill allowance of each cast member assigned to the production, giving them a high-level overview of their progress.
Export PDF contact sheets
Production-side user accounts have access to a downloads section, allowing the download of printable summary-contact-sheets of all images, all killed images, or all unkilled images. Both PDF and spreadsheet formats are available.
These contact sheets show who has killed each image, which of the talent has marked each day as done, or still needs to do so. This extra information acts as a clear audit trail and prevents contact sheets being distributed and images shared before actors have completed their kill process.
Start the talent approvals process from day-one of shooting
Social media and PR often demands the timely release of assets, especially for episodic content. Our platform helps to prevent the Image Approvals process from blocking your marketing and publicity activities.
With our Express Service we can provide your photographer with an SFTP link to upload their images to us at the end of each day so we can get your images online ready for stakeholder visibility and cast approvals as soon as possible.
