You already have the footage. The studio cuts, grades and finishes it.
WHAT WE TAKE
Send us what you shot
Phone footage, a camera card, an old company video, an event someone filmed, hours of interview material. It arrives as it is and comes back finished: cut, colour graded, sound corrected, titled and delivered in the formats you need.
This is the same post production that runs on the studio's own commercial work. The same colourist, the same finishing, the same standard. Only the camera was somebody else's.
What arrives, and what comes back
Material arrives in whatever state it is in. Phone footage shot vertically. A camera card nobody has opened. An old company video whose source files are long gone. Hours of interview with no notes. A shoot somebody else abandoned halfway.
What comes back is finished: cut to length, colour graded so shots match rather than jumping between rooms, sound corrected and levelled, titled where titles help, and delivered in the formats you actually publish to. Vertical versions come out of the same pass when they are wanted.
When the footage has a problem
It usually does. Audio recorded on a camera microphone across a room. Two cameras with different white balance. A subject lit from behind a window. Twenty minutes of usable material inside three hours of recording.
Most of that is recoverable and the recovery is the job. Some of it is not, and in that case you will be told plainly, along with what a short pickup shoot would add, rather than being handed something weak and left to notice on your own. Filming is a separate service and quoted separately.
WHY LOCAL MATTERS
A real studio, not an upload form
Most editing services are remote operations that take a file and return a file. That works until the footage has a problem, and footage usually has a problem.
Here you can talk to the people cutting it, and if the material will not carry the film you want, we will say so and tell you what a shoot day would add. Editing work is quoted on the material once we have seen it.
Sending the material
Original files rather than exports, wherever they still exist. A file that has already been compressed for YouTube has thrown away most of the latitude needed to grade it, and no amount of work puts that back.
Send everything rather than a pre-selected edit. The unused takes are frequently where the usable material is, and a selection made on a phone screen tends to discard the shots that would have carried the film.
Any transfer service, shared drive or physical card works, and the volume decides which is sensible. If audio was recorded separately, send it, along with any music, logos or fonts you want used. If you are not sure what you have, send it all and it gets sorted here.
Questions people ask
Phone footage, camera cards, an old company video, event material, hours of interviews. It arrives as it is and comes back cut, colour graded, sound corrected, titled and delivered in the formats you need.
Any transfer service, a shared drive, or a physical card. Whatever suits the volume.
We will say so, and tell you what a short pickup shoot would add rather than quietly delivering something weak. Shooting is covered on the video ads page.
Yes, if you send a reference. Grading to an established brand look is routine.
Yes. Lower thirds, titles and end cards, and full packages are covered on the intro and outro page.
On the material, once we have seen it. Volume and condition drive the work more than runtime does.
It depends on volume and condition rather than final runtime. A tidy card of material moves quickly; three hours of unlabelled footage from two cameras takes longer, and you get a schedule with the quote.
Often, to a point. Noise, hum and uneven levels are usually recoverable. Speech recorded across a room on a camera microphone frequently is not, and you will be told which of the two you have.
Yes, including phones, action cameras and older formats. Mixed sources are normal and matching them in the grade is part of the work.
Yes, either burned in or as a separate file, and both come out of the same pass.
