# Resolve a problem with a creator

> Most issues are solved quickly with a message.

Most issues are solved quickly with a message. This guide shows the order to follow when something is not going well.

## Step 1: Talk to the creator

Open the project chat and explain the issue clearly. Many problems — a missed detail, a delay, a misunderstanding — are fixed in one message. See [Chat with your creators](/brands/videos/chat-with-creators).

## Step 2: Use the right tool for the problem

| Problem | What to do |
| - | - |
| The script is not right | **Request changes** on the script. See [Review a script](/brands/videos/review-scripts). |
| The video is not right | **Reshoot request**. See [Review a video](/brands/videos/review-videos). |
| The creator is not responding | Follow up in chat, then change the creator if there is still no reply. |
| The creator is not the right fit | Change the creator (before the script is approved). |
| The product has not arrived or has an issue | Update the creator in chat and check your tracking link. See [Ship a product to your creator](/brands/videos/product-shipping). |
| You no longer need the video | See [Cancel a video and get a refund](/brands/videos/cancel-and-refund). |

## Change the creator

You can ask for a different creator for a video.

1. Open the video's **Actions** menu.
2. Choose **Change creator**.
3. Select a reason (for example the creator is not responding, or did not meet your expectations) and add details if you choose **Other**.
4. Confirm.

What happens next:

* The current creator is removed from the video and the old chat is archived.
* The video goes back to matching and a new creator is recommended. See [How creator matching works](/brands/campaigns/creator-matching).
* Your reason helps us find a better fit.

Limits:

* You can change the creator **up to 3 times per video**.
* You can change the creator only **before the script is approved** and **before a video is uploaded**. After that, request changes to the script or video, or contact support.
* For a product already shipped to the creator, tell the creator in chat so you can arrange it.

## Missed deadlines

Creators have **7 days** to upload a video, counted from their assignment (or from the moment they mark the product as received). They get warnings before the deadline. If no video is uploaded in time, the creator is removed automatically and your video returns to matching.

## Step 3: Contact Stllr support

If chatting with the creator and the tools above did not solve it, contact Stllr support. Include the **video ID** or campaign name and a short description of what happened. The team can step in, mediate with the creator, or find another solution.
