Vlog | Getting your editing time back

When outsourcing the edit makes sense

  • A YouTube channel that needs to post regularly, but where editing cannot keep up with shooting
  • Travel films where there is so much material that watching it is exhausting in itself
  • Everyday footage you want to keep, but have no time to sort through
  • Records of a child growing up, with years of clips accumulated and no single film made of them
  • Personal brand work that needs steady output while you stay focused on the content
  • Pet videos where the material is scattered and someone needs to shape it into a complete story

Common formats and lengths

  • Long-form YouTube: 8–20 minutes, landscape 1920×1080
  • Travel highlights: 3–8 minutes
  • Short cuts: under 60 seconds, vertical 1080×1920, for Shorts and Reels
  • The same material can be exported as a long film and short cuts at once, which is the best value approach
  • Subtitles are essential, as most viewers watch with the sound off

Please prepare these materials

The rules for materials are simple. Just follow whichever one of the options below matches what you have:

1. You already have footage

  • Upload the original files to Google Drive, then share the folder link with us
  • Please put the files in order first — name them in the order you want them to appear (01, 02, 03…). This step saves a great deal of back-and-forth and makes the quote more accurate
  • Please send the original files rather than sending them through a messaging app, which compresses them and costs you quality

2. You do not have footage yet

A simple script is enough. You only need to write down three things:

  • From which second to which second
  • What is on screen
  • What text appears

For example:

0–5 sec | Opening shot (for example an aerial of the setting, the entrance, the product itself) | Text: the brand or topic name
5–12 sec | Main content, camera pushing in slowly | Text: the one line you most want people to remember
12–20 sec | Closing shot | Text: contact details or a call to action

It does not need to be beautifully written, just clear. We will use that script to assess how feasible it is and what the scope of work would be.

For anything else, just ask on our official LINE.

How we work together

Every project is bespoke, so the process starts with “taking a look first”, not with a price.

Fill in the enquiry form

Tell us the video type, length, format and delivery date. It takes about a minute.

Send the material or a script

If you have footage, upload it to Google Drive and put it in order; if you do not, send a simple three-point script (from which second to which second / what is on screen / what text appears).

Assessment and quotation

We tell you what we found and how much improvement you can expect, and send a quote for you to decide on. If we judge that it cannot be handled, we will say so and explain why.

Production and delivery

We deliver a first cut on the agreed schedule, and export the finished film once the revisions are confirmed. Working days are counted from confirmation of payment.

Frequently asked questions

Can we work together long term, with a fixed weekly edit?

That can be discussed. The advantage of an ongoing arrangement is that we get to know your style and the tone of your channel, so the communication overhead drops each time. Please say what update frequency and video length you have in mind when you enquire.

The files are very large. How do we send them?

Upload to Google Drive and share the folder link. Please do not send material through messaging apps, as it will be compressed and the image quality will suffer.

Can you do subtitles only?

Yes. Subtitling on its own and a full edit are different scopes of service with different quotes, so please say which you want when you enquire.

Will you keep my style?

Yes. If you have previous videos, send us one or two for reference and we will cut to your existing pacing, typefaces and colours.

How long does one film take?

A typical vlog takes about 5–10 working days, depending on the volume of material. Projects with more than three hours of footage, or needing a large amount of subtitling, will take somewhat longer.
