Everything we cut, laid out on one timeline.

Export Frame sizes

Every size, and the project files.

Frame size

9:16 · 1080 × 1920 · Reels, Shorts, TikTok

Same clip, four frames. You get the ones your platforms need.

Project files ✓ included

Colour Scopes

Correct first. Then make it feel like something.

Every grade starts as a correction: white balance, exposure, skin that looks like skin. Only then a look, and a light one.

Program

A desk and chair standing in a green field under a blue sky, split down the middle: flattened like log footage on the left, graded on the right.

Illustration. The flat side is the same photograph, flattened.

Effects

The small things that make it land.

Effects

  • Thumbnails

    Designed alongside the edit, so the promise on the thumbnail is the one the video keeps. Delivered as a pack of options, in your style.

  • Subtitles and captions

    Burned in and timed to the beat for Reels, Shorts and TikTok. Subtitle files for YouTube, where they help people find you.

  • Motion graphics

    Titles, lower thirds, maps and callouts, in your fonts and your colours. Logo stings too.

  • Colour

    Shots matched, skin kept honest, and one look that is yours across every video.

  • Podcast clips

    The long recording in, short captioned clips out, sized for each platform.

  • Raw to ready

    Messy drives sorted, files named, footage synced. You get a project anyone could open.

Render queue

Four steps, real timelines.

No status check calls needed.
