FAQ

What everyone asks

What people ask us most before starting. If your question isn't here, write to us.

Why aren't there prices on the site?

Because no two sets of footage are the same. Two hours of just chatting isn't the same job as eight hours of gameplay across four different games. A fixed rate would mean overcharging you or doing worse work. Tell us your budget in the form and we'll tell you quickly whether we're a fit.

Do you do effects or motion graphics?

We can, but it isn't our speciality. What we do is the edit: the narrative, making sense of a video pulled out of hours of raw footage. Motion graphics can be added if you want them, but the budget goes up.

How do I get the footage to you?

A link: Drive, WeTransfer, the Twitch VOD, or an unlisted YouTube upload. You don't need a particular format and you don't need to prep it.

What does the edit include?

Structure, pacing, levelled audio and colour correction if it needs it. We deliver it ready to upload, in whatever format you use.

How long does it take?

It depends on the footage, and we won't quote you before we've seen it. Once we've watched it you get a firm date. What we do hold is the pace: we work with people who stream daily and nothing piles up.

How many rounds of changes are included?

One, and here's why. Reviewing a thirty or forty minute video takes almost as long as cutting it. Since we don't work with complex effects, corrections tend to be minor anyway. Whatever you tell us gets carried into the next videos, which is where it actually shows.

Do you work with small channels?

We work with anyone who can sustain the work. Channel size matters less to us than how often you stream and what your budget per video is.

Can I ask for twenty videos a month?

Yes, and thirty too. What we can't do is promise a slot every time — it depends on what's on our desk when you write. Tell us the volume in the form and we'll give you a straight answer.

How does payment work?

New clients pay up front. After three months working together, it moves to payment at the end of the month.

What languages do you work in?

We edit in Spanish and in English.

What if I don't like the result?

That's what the included round of changes is for. If it still isn't right, we'd rather find out early and stop than drag out something that isn't working. There's no lock-in.

Shall we start with your footage?

Tell us what you record and we'll tell you if we're a fit.
