A Chief Editor (CE) is the highest editor position of the three positions available. The Chief Editor or CE is the last line of defense for edits and approvals.
Chief Editors will take over the video and edits from General Editors and review all subtitles before releasing the episode to the other language teams to begin work. It is crucial that Chief Editors lock the subtitles upon final edits so as to prevent unauthorized edits after.
Chief Editors must communicate the release of episodes (or completion of a movie) to other language teams in a timely manner, preferably through the language moderators.
