Rehearse with the speaker and lock the approved recording version. ## Done - A versioned teleprompter file contains approved spoken text, pronunciation, pacing, cues, sources, and production notes - Read-through and timing checks verify accuracy, natural delivery, duration, readability, and speaker approval
