A REASON TO STOP.
A reason to stay.
01
A clear story
We shape the opening, keep the useful moments and build towards the action you want the viewer to take. The edit follows your message, not a pile of transitions.
02
An intentional finish
Consistent colour, balanced dialogue, controlled music and type that belongs to your brand. The small decisions are what make the whole video feel considered.
03
Made for its screen
A desktop film and a vertical reel need different framing. We reposition subjects, titles and captions for the agreed formats instead of squeezing everything into a crop.
DIFFERENT VIDEOS. THE SAME ATTENTION.
Reels, TikTok & Shorts
Vertical edits, captioned talking heads, launch clips and highlights. One focused idea, readable text and a clear ending.
Ads & product videos
Product launches, demonstrations and social ad creatives made from your footage and assets. Alternate hooks and campaign batches available by custom offer.
Corporate & brand films
Company introductions, founder stories, interviews, testimonials and recruitment videos. Clear structure without the stock corporate feel.
YouTube, podcasts & courses
Explainers, tutorials, interviews and educational content. Full episodes, multicamera timelines and recurring editing are scoped separately.
Book trailers & film teasers
Turn your cover, artwork, approved copy or film footage into a teaser with a visual identity. Full trailer development and footage selection are quoted to the brief.
Events, weddings & travel
Highlights, personal films and atmospheric travel pieces from the footage you supply. Tell us the moments that matter and the mood you want.
Music & performance
Performance edits, lyric-led graphics and promotional cuts using cleared music. Multicamera performances and full music videos need an agreed scope.
Motion graphics & explainers
Animated type, logo reveals, product callouts and clear visual explanations. Original illustration, character work and complex animation are custom projects.
Videos without existing footage
We can plan a piece from photos, design assets or agreed generated visuals. Share the idea first: we confirm the creative approach, assets and price before production.
FROM FILES to final cut.
- 01
Tell us what it needs to do
Audience, platform, message, final length and a style reference. If the project falls outside a package, we agree a custom offer first.
- 02
Share your material
Upload small files in your order or share a downloadable Drive, Dropbox or WeTransfer link. Include your logo, copy and any must-use moments.
- 03
Review the first edit
See the cut in your order workspace. Send one list of timecoded notes per round so feedback stays clear and nothing gets lost.
- 04
Approve & publish
Receive the agreed final exports after approval. We check framing, captions and playback, and label the versions so you know where each belongs.
WHAT LANDS IN YOUR INBOX.
01
A finished MP4
An H.264 MP4 ready to upload, at 1080p. Standard and Premium can deliver 4K when the source supports it. No artificial claim that low-resolution footage becomes real 4K.
02
The formats you chose
9:16 vertical, 16:9 landscape or 1:1 square within your package allowance. Each included version is deliberately reframed; Premium also adds two vertical cutdowns.
03
Captions & clear versions
Reviewed on-screen captions in one language present in your footage. Premium includes the SRT file. Translation, editable projects and extra versions can be agreed before ordering.
SEND THESE AND WE CAN START.
- Your footage or photo folder and its total running time.
- Purpose, audience, destination platform and desired video length.
- Approved text or script, logo and any brand colours or fonts.
- One or two references, plus the moments you must include or exclude.
- Required language, aspect ratios, deadline and permission to use the supplied assets.
A useful package has clear boundaries.
These prices cover remote editing of supplied material and simple 2D graphics. Filming, actors, full scriptwriting, translation, complex 3D/VFX, extensive audio repair and editable project files are separate. Music is supplied by you with permission or chosen from a free commercial-use library; any paid stock or music licence is agreed in advance. A polished edit cannot guarantee views or sales.
PART OF A BIGGER RELEASE?
Before you order
QUESTIONS, ANSWERED. Before you need to ask.
Can you edit any kind of video?
We work across promotional, corporate, creator, editorial and personal video. The subject is flexible; the scope still matters. Tell us about long episodes, multicamera shoots, extensive archive footage or complex animation before buying so we can confirm the right offer.
What if I only have an idea, photos or a book cover?
Send them with the goal and desired length. A photo-led promo, animated cover or motion piece may be a good fit. Creation from scratch has a different workload from editing footage, so we confirm the storyboard, asset sourcing and price through a custom offer.
Do the sample videos show real client projects?
No. They are original motion-design demonstrations made with generated still images and typography. They show specific visual treatments, not live-action footage we filmed or campaigns commissioned by those brands.
Are music, stock footage and voice-over included?
We can edit with assets you have permission to use, or music from a suitable free commercial-use library. Paid stock, paid music licences, voice talent and generated voice-over are agreed separately. We check the intended use before selecting licensed assets.
Can I send phone footage or very large files?
Yes. Send the original files rather than compressed messaging-app copies where possible. For large projects, share a downloadable cloud folder and tell us the total running time. Do not send account passwords.
What counts as a revision?
A round is one consolidated list of changes to the agreed edit: timing, clip choices, text or sound levels. A new script, new concept, newly supplied footage or additional outputs changes the scope and is quoted before work continues.
Can you edit in English and Spanish?
Yes. Tell us which language the final video and captions should use. One language already present in your material is included. Translation, dubbing and additional language versions need a separate quote.
Can I book ongoing editing or a full podcast episode?
Yes, through a custom offer. Share the episode length, number of cameras, weekly volume, graphics and clip requirements. This avoids paying a short-video package price for a different production.
