In short

  • After filming, the work moves through selection, editing, review and delivery.
  • Give feedback in one round, with times and specific changes.
  • Name who approves the video before editing starts.
  • Corrections, extra rounds and new requests are different things; ask how each is handled.

Once filming is done, the film goes through selection, editing, review and delivery. Delays and disagreements usually come from unclear approvals and scattered feedback, not from the editing itself.

The stages after filming

Stage The decision Read
Overview What happens to the footage after the event? What happens after an event has been filmed
Schedule When do you need drafts, and who approves? Agreeing a realistic delivery schedule
Review How do you give feedback that gets used? Giving useful feedback on a draft
Acceptance What do you check before saying yes? What to check before accepting the final video
Changes What counts as a correction or a new request? Revisions, corrections and scope changes

Give feedback once, in one list

Collect everyone’s comments before sending them. Use the time in the video and describe the change, not just how it feels. Our timecoded feedback builder helps you set the list out.

If several people on your side will comment, agree beforehand who has the final say. For weddings and family films, read choosing who approves a wedding or family film. For company films, see consolidating feedback from several stakeholders.

Corrections are not the same as new requests

A misspelt name or a wrong title is a correction. A different structure or a new scene is a change to what was agreed. How each is handled, including any extra charge, depends on your agreement. We agree this with you before editing begins, and the quote states the number of review rounds.

Already have footage?

If someone else filmed the event, or it was filmed on phones, we look at what you have first. We check file quality, sound and permissions, then tell you what is achievable. Our guide on editing mixed camera and phone footage explains what to expect.

Questions people ask

How long does editing take?
It depends on the films you asked for, how much was filmed and how quickly you review. Your quote should say when each draft is expected, and that schedule should work backwards from the date you need the video.
How should we give feedback on a draft?
Collect comments from everyone on your side first, then send them in one list. Use the time in the video and say exactly what to change, for example 'remove this shot at 1:20'. One list avoids contradictory requests and keeps the review round short.
What is the difference between a correction and a new request?
A correction fixes something wrong, such as a misspelt name. A new request changes what was agreed, such as a different ending. Before editing begins, we agree with you how each is treated and how many review rounds the quote includes.
Can you edit footage that someone else filmed?
Often yes, but it depends on the quality of the files, the sound and whether you have permission to use them. We assess what you have first, then tell you what is achievable. Mixed phone and camera footage can be edited, though results vary.
