Makeweights & Snap ins 
This article offers help and advice for Producers, Production Managers and Editors on how to deal with Makeweights and Snap Ins.
Makeweights and snap-ins are interchangeable terms, but it may be easier to think of them separately. They crop up in pre-production when you see your Production Agreement and Deliverables Schedule and realise that you are required to make them for the broadcaster, and they become a real issue once you are in post-production and have to produce them.
