From timeline
to final cut.

Whether we film a project or you bring us your existing footage, our editing workflow delivers polished, platform-ready content that makes your brand look world-class.

We don't just cut clips together — we craft a narrative. Every edit is built around your audience, your platform, and the feeling you want to create. One team, one creative vision, zero friction.

Video editing and post-production at AerialJohnny

Five steps to
final delivery

01

File Management

Whether we film a project or handle post-production only, the workflow stays the same. Media is securely offloaded, backed up, edited and delivered via WeTransfer or FTP, with consistent handling from start to finish.

02

Creative Briefing

We take the time to understand your project inside out — discussing your goals, preferred music styles, target audience and the formats you plan to use. Every creative decision is aligned with your vision from day one.

03

Content Reviews

For ease of access, we share previews of first drafts via YouTube Private links while also using FTP servers if client systems allow. You see the work before it's finalised, every time.

04

Amends

After reviewing, a list of amends is put together and we finalise all changes — whether it's timing, effects, music or graphics. Nothing is locked in until you're completely happy.

05

Final Delivery

Once approved, we export at the highest render settings available in every format required — delivered via FTP or WeTransfer, ready to publish immediately across all your platforms.
