The Edited Difference

Your Professional edited version includes:

  • Smooth professional scene transitions
  • Balance sound levels throughout
  • Multiple camera angle for variety and better coverage
  • Exclusion of static scenes or camera repositioning
  • 9-12 hours of computer editing & quality checks

Typical characteristics of unedited videos

  • No added intro montages or titles
  • Un-edited sound
  • A very long duration. Generally up to 2 hours
  • Sections that did not turn out such as shots in to low of light
  • Footage that may be deemed questionable for general audiences. This may include a swear word, offensive behavior due to drinking or anything else that was caught on tape and would generally not be something shown to everyone
