Secure Footage Storage

​

After spending hours shooting, the first thing you need to do is find a reliable and secure storage area for your footage. You can use a basic hard drive or the more sophisticated Raids, a collection of hard drives to store your corporate video production content. Professional editors mostly use raid because it improves the performance and reliability of data storage.

Visual Editing

​

One of the most essential parts of video post-production is the choosing and editing format. While some post-production companies choose old-school styles, including sprucing up the film using special equipment, modern companies choose a digital style for video editing.

Video Content Creation editors will go through the footage shot and develop an Edit Decision List. The list is crucial because it assists in creating a video that matches the ideas put across during the pre-production stage. It involves choosing the best scenes and discarding the parts that have no value for the final product. Some common visual effects are animation or CGI modeling by creating 3D objects or characters. It may also include simple things like a fading or filter.

Lower Third

​

The lower third is a text added to an image's lower third. It provides contextual information such as location, occupation, and other relevant information. It's only meant to pass information and should not be distracting. However, you can add a design or a little animation to make the lower third pop. It's indispensable if you need the person watching to pay extra attention to detail or take action.

​

Color Correction

​

It's time to add color correction after adding your lower thirds and visual effects to your Video Content Creation Florida. This process involves changing the color of the light in various shots using digital filters to make the shots match. It includes dealing with exposure problems with too much light in some shots and too little in others and white balance issues that make the colors not match.

​

Sound Engineering and Editing

​

The next important step in Video Editing is sound editing. Sound improves the visuals by adding music, dialogue, sound effects, and more to make the film more efficient and enjoyable. It involves recording audio to use in the video and getting music rights for tracks they want to include in the product.   

Another part of sound editing is removing unnecessary background noise and putting together a cohesive dialogue that enhances the flow of the story. In some instances, some parts of dialogue may not come up well in the actual footage, and the editor will re-record the dialogue and insert it in the film. The final mix is layered into the Video Content Creation to provide some depth and make the audio sound more realistic. A good soundtrack makes the performance stronger and more impactful.

​

Sound Mixing

​

Sound mixing is different from adding sound effects because it requires going through the video content and adjusting audio levels. For example, it helps make the dialogue audible over background music or adjust sound effects to ensure that they are not too jarring compared to other sounds. If your sound is not to par, your audience will likely tune out.

​

Title and End Cards

​

End cards are graphics that come at the end of the video. It includes end credits that give credit to all individuals who worked in the film's production. End cards promote a brand in digital videos by highlighting its name, logo, or additional links. It's a Call to Action for the audience.

​

Preparing for Distribution

​

As you come close to the end of the Video Production Services, you will need to think about distribution. You will need to make sure you have the music and effects track in this step. For films intended for international consumers, you will need to develop soundtracks without the dialogue. You will also need to create a script showing the exact time different words are spoken to make it easy to insert subtitles for the dialogue on your screen.
