Great editing is so much more than "curating to just keep the good bits"
Editing is telling the story, setting the scene, and perfect timing
Editing is creating emotionally engaging video
Our in-house team of experienced Editors are involved from the beginning so they fully understand the brief and offer their editor’s perspective on the project
Once the footage is provided they work with shoot storyboards, producer notes, scripts, mood boards, etc to start building the video - assembling, re-working and trimming to generate a first cut.
From there, working with your feedback they move forward to a 2nd and then final cut
Our editing suits are all equipped with Adobe Package and DaVinci Resolve, plus editing plugins for stabilisation, noise reduction etc. We have super-fast, networked storage systems to enable editors to access footage from all stations
Once editing is completed, the next stage of post production is to grade your video
Colour grading is essential to turn something good into something great
Through colour grading you can deliver the emotion and message by adjusting the temperature, brightness, contrast and saturation of the scene, and also to create a stylised ‘look’ and your video's visual identity
Great colour grading can elevate the apparent quality of your video
Our Colorists are creatives who can partner with you to understand and bring your concept to fruition
Our editing suites enable us to grade on industry standard colour calibrated monitors using DaVinci Resolve which is widely regarded as the standard grading software within the film industry
Our setup enables our colorists to work in most formats and resolutions such as 2K, 4K, 6K, RAW, DPX, R3D and all other file types
