A SIMPLE, COLLABORATIVE PROCESS.
Trailer editing starts with the intended audience, target duration, release platform, and the scenes or lines you want included. Tell me what must remain a surprise and which parts of the story cannot be revealed. I build a clear sequence around the central idea, then shape the rhythm with picture, dialogue, music, and sound.
A teaser, a full trailer, and a launch preview serve different purposes, so we agree which versions are in scope. Supplied logos, approved credits, release information, and music licensing requirements belong in the brief. I send a review version before preparing the final masters. Your trailer editing delivery can include the agreed horizontal version, shorter cutdowns, captions, and platform-specific exports with consistent titles and filenames.
You work directly with me, from the brief through delivery. The quote covers the agreed video lengths, formats, revision rounds, and deadline.
WHAT TO INCLUDE IN YOUR BRIEF.
Start with the audience and the main message. Then share the source recording or approved script, the target duration, the intended platform, and any brand guidelines. A reference video helps me understand your preferred pace and visual style. If you have essential terminology, names, or pronunciation notes, include those with the assets.
Let me know which versions you need: a horizontal master, vertical cutdowns, captions, or a separate subtitle file. Tell me who will review the edit and when it needs to be ready. This makes the estimate more precise and keeps production moving once the scope is agreed.
REVIEWS, FORMATS & DELIVERY.
We agree the number of review rounds before work begins. Consolidated, time-coded feedback helps me make clear changes efficiently. I’ll flag missing assets or an unclear instruction instead of guessing at your intended message. The delivery package can include your approved master, agreed cutdowns, and subtitle files.
Small edits may fit a 2–4 business day window after the scope and assets are approved. Longer recordings, complex graphics, or multiple modules need a schedule based on the actual volume. Tell me about any release date early so I can confirm availability.
A FEW GOOD QUESTIONS.
What should I send for a film trailer?
Send the film or selects, a synopsis, the desired tone, spoiler limits, your deadline, and any cleared music or artwork.
Can you make different trailer lengths?
Yes. We can scope a main trailer plus shorter teasers and vertical versions.
Is music licensing included?
We agree licensing separately. You can provide cleared tracks, or I can help select music within the approved budget and usage rights.
