Questions people ask
How many revisions are normal?
Two rounds of revisions is standard. Check each quote says how many rounds are included and what extra rounds cost.
How much does video editing cost?
Simple social cut-downs sit at the low end of the range above. Brand films with colour grading, sound design and motion graphics cost more. The length of the raw footage matters as much as the length of the final film.
What should I send the editor?
All the raw footage, any logos and brand colours, music you have the rights to, and two or three examples of videos you like. The clearer the references, the fewer revision rounds you will need.
Is music licensing included?
Not always. Ask each editor whether licensed music is included in the price and where the video can be used with it.
