Video Editing Services
Editing, colour grading, sound and subtitles, for footage we shoot and footage you already have.
From hours of footage to the minute that matters
Dominic edits nearly everything we make, and he holds an unofficial record for first cuts signed off with no changes. Your footage goes through the same edit suite, whether we shot it or you did.
Send us the footage, who it’s for and any brand bits (logos, fonts, music you like). We’ll cut it, grade it, mix the sound and add subtitles, with two rounds of changes included. If something’s missing, like a shot of the building or a line from the MD, we’ll tell you early, and we can film it.

Editing

The edit is where the story happens
For People’s Powerhouse we filmed across the North and cut it into a five-minute documentary and two short edits. For Ringtons, one shoot became a campaign film, eight social films and 27 deliverables.
If you want the long version, Luke wrote about it: Editing: the unsung hero of video production, and there’s one on colour grading and LUTs for the real nerds.
