Video editing services for business

Video editing turns raw footage into finished content: trimmed, paced, captioned, color-corrected and exported in the right format for each platform. AJ Creationz edits social videos, brand films and ad creative for businesses around the world, so you can film on a phone or camera and hand the cutting to us.

Most viewers watch social video with the sound off, so we design for that first: a strong opening, readable captions inside each platform's safe zones and clear on-screen text. We deliver the same video in vertical, square and horizontal formats where you need them, ready to post or to run as paid ads.

Social media video editing

Short-form edits for Instagram Reels, TikTok, YouTube Shorts and LinkedIn. We cut for attention, add captions and sound, and match your brand fonts and colors so a month of posts looks consistent.

Ad creative for Meta and Google

Paid video needs a different approach to organic: a hook in the first two seconds, one clear message and one call to action. We produce several variations of the same ad so you can test hooks and see which one lowers your cost per lead. Pair it with our Meta and Google ads management if you want one team running the whole loop.

Brand films and promo videos

For longer videos such as company stories, product explainers and event recaps, we structure the edit around a clear narrative, add music, graphics and sound design, and finish with color correction.

Captions and subtitles for global audiences

Captions help viewers who watch without sound and viewers who speak another language. We burn in captions or deliver subtitle files, and can edit to supplied translations for audiences in other markets.

What we need from you

A brief makes editing faster and cheaper. Send us:

  • The raw footage, shared by a link
  • Your logo, fonts and colors (or your brand guidelines)
  • One or two example videos you like
  • The platform and goal for each video
  • Any music or licensing requirements

Turnaround, revisions and formats

We agree a delivery date up front. Two rounds of revisions are included as standard, and we export 9:16, 1:1 and 16:9 versions on request. Music is licensed for commercial use, which is easy to overlook on social platforms.

How much does video editing cost?

Market figures from published guides, not AJ Creationz quotes: pounds for the UK and dollars for the US. We quote every project in writing after a short call.
