SCENE 01 / VIDEO EDITING
Professional Video Editing Services
Expert editors for film, TV, commercials, and digital content with seamless storytelling and technical excellence.
Video editing is the creative work of picking, arranging, and refining footage into a clear story. Editors shape pacing and build emotional arcs, and they match scenes visually through shot choice, transitions, and timing. This turns raw footage into a polished, engaging viewing experience.
We connect you with skilled video editors and post-prod studios suited to your project's format, genre, and timeline. Our team sets up suite booking, media handling, and workflow logistics, so your editor can focus fully on the creative craft of building your story.

Editorial services across New York production formats
Video editing in New York sits inside a post-prod world shaped by HBO, Netflix, Apple TV+, Amazon Studios, and the news teams at 30 Rock, ABC, CBS, Bloomberg, CNBC, and MSNBC. In this city, Avid Media Composer stays the go-to workflow for prestige drama like Severance, Succession, Mrs. Maisel, and the long Sopranos lineage, while late-night edit for Colbert, Meyers, Fallon, and The Daily Show turns out nightly from Manhattan suites.
Our edit planning matches each project with editors trained inside that pipeline, many through NYU Tisch's Film and TV editing track, Columbia Film, SVA, or Pratt. We then book suite-time at Light Iron NY at Harbor Picture Company, PostWorks NY, Technicolor PostWorks NY, Goldcrest Post Soho, FotoKem NY, Final Frame, Different by Design, or Firm 3 NY based on the finishing path. Media ingest, proxy creation, and IATSE Local 700 (Motion Picture Editors Guild) compliant project setup all happen before any footage hits the timeline.
Editors work across several tools to fit each job. Avid Media Composer is the HBO Hudson Yards, Showtime, and Apple TV+ NYC standard for long-form drama. We turn to Adobe Premiere Pro for commercial and documentary projects, to DaVinci Fix where the finishing path is colour-led at Firm 3 NY or Harbor Picture Company, and to Final Cut Pro X for fast digital and social deliverables. The pipeline handles ARRIRAW, RED R3D, Sony X-OCN, ProRes, DNxHD, and H.264/H.265 platform deliverables, and it supports 4K through 8K resolutions and HDR across the board.
We plan AAF, EDL, and XML hand-offs from the first day of edit. These go to the DI suite, or to FotoKem NY and Goldcrest Post when colour and online run together. Remote review via Frame.io and Evercast bridges Hudson Yards, Tribeca, and overseas working hours. Picture-locked timelines arrive with full conform metadata intact. We also protect NYS Film Tax Credit eligibility on each project, including the 30-35% post-prod uplift, the largest US post credit, all logged under Empire State Development PCN/PTC records.
