FAST TURN AROUND

Footage in the morning, published by evening — for live events, breaking moments, or reactive brand content that loses value if it's late.

V2

All IN-HOUSE

Full edit, graphics, colour grading, audio editing and platform-specific reframing kept in house for fast turn arounds and no bottlenecks in the production

V1

ONGOING

Weekly or monthly batches for brands and productions needing a consistent output without briefing from scratch each time.

SOCIAL MEDIA REFRAMING

One Shoot, Every Platform

Every crop is a re-edit, not a stretch-and-crop — graphics repositioned, action reframed, pacing adjusted per platform.

FOR ANYONE NEW TO POST PRODUCTION

TL:DR - WE DO IT ALL

Here's what we do it all means

You don't need to know any of this to work with us — but if you're curious what actually happens between sending us footage and getting a finished video back, here's the whole process

04 / 04

01

Ingest

Getting your raw footage and audio safely into the edit system and organised, so nothing gets lost before editing even starts.

02

Offline Edit

Cutting the story together for the first time — finding the best moments and building the shape of the edit.

03

Client Reviews

You watch the edit and give notes. This is the stage built around your feedback, before anything is finished in full quality — so changes here are quick and cheap.

04

Online edit

Rebuilding the approved edit in full broadcast quality, fixing every technical detail so it's ready for grading and delivery.

05

Colour grade

Adjusting colour and light so every shot matches and the whole edit has one consistent, polished look, whatever camera or lighting it was shot on.

06

Sound mix

Balancing dialogue, music and effects so everything is clear and levelled correctly — including for platforms most people watch on mute.

07

Graphics & titles

Adding on-screen text, captions, lower thirds, and any branding that needs to sit over the picture.

08

Reformat & reframe

Re-editing the finished piece into whatever shapes each platform needs — 16:9, 1:1, 9:16 — not just cropping the same frame smaller.

09

QC & delivery

A final technical check, then delivering the finished files in the exact format each platform or broadcaster requires.
