The footage already exists. Let's use it.

Sometimes the footage already exists. Somebody filmed an event, a plant tour, a set of interviews, and it is sitting on a drive because nobody had time to do anything with it.

That is money already spent, doing nothing. It happens more than you would think, and we can fix it.

Interview footage. Somebody recorded conversations and nobody has cut them into anything. This is the most common one and usually the most valuable, because the material is already there.

Event coverage. Hours of footage from a conference, gala, or company event that never became anything.

Existing libraries. Old shoot days that produced more than got used. Most companies use about ten percent of what they paid for.

Product and process footage. Raw material from a plant floor or a job site that needs shaping.

Social cuts from a finished video. You have a three minute piece and need fifteen shorter ones from the same footage. More on short form video.

We watch all of it first. That sounds obvious and it is the part people skip.

Then we tell you honestly what is in there. Sometimes it is a strong three minute video. Sometimes it is a good ninety second piece and a set of clips. Occasionally it is not enough and the right answer is to film more, which we will say plainly rather than stretching thin material.

We once told a contractor not to book a new shoot because he already had years of footage sitting unused.

He started reposting it, and it kept bringing in work. Read why we told Quality Workx no.

Bad audio. Nobody can. A soft image can be improved, but an echo or a roar in the room is in the recording for good.

If the audio is unusable, we will tell you before taking the project rather than after.

The main edit plus whatever formats you need. Horizontal for web and YouTube, vertical for Reels and Stories, square for feeds.

Captions burned in on social cuts, since most of these are watched with the sound off. Two rounds of revisions included. If we shot it, here is our honest answer on whether you get the raw footage.

Based in Greensboro, working across the Triad and North Carolina. Editing work does not require us to be in the room, so location matters less here than on a shoot. Send a link to the footage and we start by watching.

• If you have footage sitting unused, editing costs less than filming again.
• We watch everything before telling you what it can become.
• Interview footage is usually worth more than people think.
• Bad audio cannot be fixed, and we will tell you that up front.
