What Is Post-Production?
Post-production takes the video and audio captured in the field (production) and edits it into the award-winning video you had in mind all along. The editor will log the tapes from the shoot, then begin the process of sorting through: picking and choosing good takes, angles, sound, lighting and composition. Although this is often an arduous and costly process, it doesn't have to be. By editing all of our video in-house we are able to cut costs dramatically.
