Module 01
Custody and preparation
Define authority, identifiers, destinations and stop conditions before source media arrives.
01
Role, custody and the non-deletion boundary
Understand what a data wrangler verifies, records and escalates—and why a successful copy is never personal authority to erase a source.
20 min
02
Data plan, destinations and station preflight
Turn delivery requirements into a folder, identifier, verification, capacity, security and reporting plan before the shoot.
20 min
Module 02
Inventory and verified transfer
Receive source conservatively, create fixity evidence and verify two complete destinations.
03
Source receipt, inventory and folder structure
Record the source as received, preserve its internal structure and place each transfer inside an unambiguous production folder.
22 min
04
Checksums, fixity and verified copying
Use a production-approved transfer tool to compare source and destination data and retain the verification evidence.
25 min
05
Two verified copies and source-release gates
Reconcile independent destinations and report a release-ready state without erasing, formatting or directing reuse of the source.
25 min
Module 03
Reports, security and exception handling
Make the handover intelligible to another person and keep problems visible, contained and recoverable.
06
Manifests, reports and production handover
Create records that allow editorial, production and the next custodian to identify what arrived and what remains unresolved.
22 min
07
Security, failures and escalation scenarios
Respond to a missing source, checksum mismatch, compromised destination or urgent request without concealing risk or exceeding authority.
