The four heights
The same task, four distances: today's deadline, the next reviewer, the stuck moment, the pattern.

Execute — do the immediate task
+I need a high-resolution still from the final cut. Export the current frame at full project resolution as a TIFF with embedded color profile and no compression, name the file FinalFrame_2026-07-17_TIFF, save it to /Deliverables/Stills, and confirm the pixel dimensions and color space before exporting.

Improve — make it easier to accept
+Before I send this still to marketing, make the image obvious and usable: put the exact pixel dimensions and color profile at the top, export both a print-ready TIFF and a web-friendly PNG, and flag any visible frame edges or overlays that would make the still unusable for publication.

Decide — diagnose the stuck moment
+I just scrubbed to the frame I want and pressed export but the file looks washed out
I just captured a frame from the timeline and the exported image looks desaturated compared with the Program Monitor. The deliverables contact is Jenna in marketing and they need a print-quality TIFF by Friday. I’m worried the timeline is using LUTs or sequence color settings I’m not seeing. What likely caused the color shift and what are the exact steps to export a frame that matches the monitor and embeds the correct color profile?

Become — change the pattern
+I keep exporting stills that need redoing for color or size
Every few projects I export single frames that later come back from clients complaining about wrong dimensions or color. I lose time iterating exports and explain color-management basics every time. Which habits or checklist items will stop these reworks — specific settings to check every time, a one-line naming convention, and a quick verification step that takes under two minutes?

Every task here came from the work, not from a feature list — which is why the prompts name what you want done and never the button that does it. The tool changes; the work does not.
