Retention editing

Most of a raw recording is the run-up to the point.

Retention editing is mostly subtraction. We take out what makes people leave, then tighten what’s left so the middle of the video holds.

  • False start and second take2:10

How it works

From first call to first cut.

A paid test edit comes before any retainer, so neither of us commits blind.

  1. Book a call

    30 minutes. Bring a link to a recent video and we’ll talk through what we’d cut.

  2. Send a test edit

    One video, paid, no retainer. It’s how we both find out if it’s a fit.

    Drop raw files in Google Drive or Frame.io. Give us editor access to the channel if you want us to upload.

FAQ

Questions we hear on calls.

What kind of channels do you work with?

Business, finance, self-improvement, and coaching channels. Mostly long-form talking-head, interview, and video essay formats.

What do you need from me?

Raw footage in a Google Drive folder. Editor access to your channel is optional, if you want us to upload for you.

What’s your turnaround?

First cut within 48 hours of receiving footage. Revisions come back within 24 hours.

What if I don’t like the edit?

Two revision rounds are included on every video. The paid test edit exists so neither of us commits to a retainer blind.

Do you do thumbnails and titles?

Yes, as an add-on for retainer clients. Some of our thumbnails are in the work section above.

Where are you based?

India. We work across US and European time zones and have never missed a deadline because of it.
