amazing video editors

for 70% less than US employees

There is a $500 deposit to get you sample portfolios and tests from 2 editors. We apply your deposit to the first month subscription fee if you decide to hire. Most full-time editors cost $2,995/month. Some premium editors cost $3,995/month.

You can hire an amazing, full-time editor for as little as $36,000 per year in the Philippines. Your editor will have excellent English, a strong work ethic, and work while you sleep.

Yes. Your editor is on your team. All editors work full-time for only you. They are just like a regular team member.

We like to think of the US to Philippines time difference as time travel. You can record and upload raw videos during your day, then wake up to edited videos the next morning.

Some clients find it helpful to schedule an hour or two of overlap with their editor to sync-up and handle any quick revisions

These are great editors, so they work fast. Exact times depend on a lot of factors – particularly how much footage there is and how many motion graphics are requested. But here’s some general guidelines:

• Clip – 4-8 hours to cut, lightly edit, and caption. 
• Long-Form – 2 days to work through footage, cut, and lightly edit. 
• Ad – 4 days for a highly edited 1 minute ad

These are general minimums, but once you start working with your editor you’ll get a good sense for each other’s workflow and speed. You can work together to dial things in from there.

Also, if you provide them with asset databases like Envato Elements, Storyblocks, etc. they’ll be able to work much faster.

Your editor can work on long-form videos, clips, ads, explainers, vlogs, etc. We help match you with the best video editor for your content.

Our editors have worked on everything from Will Smith 10-second animations to 1-minute HubSpot ads to 1-hour Hasan Minhaj specials.

• First you’ll submit our hiring form to schedule a call. This will help us learn more about your needs and your ideal video editor.
• When you’re ready to move forward, you’ll place a $500 refundable deposit so we can start sourcing the best editor for your job. You just sit back and relax.
• We’ll come back to you with a Clipt-patented test edit and portfolio from the top editor for your content. You’ll have 1 week to decide if you’d like to hire them.
• If you love your editor and are ready to hire them, you’ll subscribe to Clipt and we’ll help embed your new full-time video editor onto your team!
• You never have to worry about hiring, firing, payroll, or taxes.

To work effectively with an editor, you’ll give them your raw footage, a couple-sentence creative brief with any time constraints, and any inspiration for what you want your video to look like.

You can work with your editor on your preferred messaging platform: Slack, Teams, email, WhatsApp, etc.

We love having our editors upload their edits directly to Frame for feedback. On Frame you can leave comments at specific timestamps to make asynchronous work simple.

No way! We just love the catchy name Clipt.

The best partnerships are between a producer who can strategize and an editor who can focus on execution. We recommend having somebody on your team flag awesome moments that are worth clipping, so your editor can focus on what they do best. However, editors can absolutely be trained to find the best clips from your long-form videos once they’ve been working on your content for a while.

We encourage all clients to communicate any concerns directly with their editor. We also help manage editor expectations and give tips for how best to work with creatives
If you’re still having issues, no problem. Just contact us at support@clipt.co to let us know what’s going on. We’ll be happy to help you find a better fit if needed.

All overseas editors receive their national holidays off and 2 weeks paid time off per year – the standard for employment in the US. This also helps fight off creative burnout.
You and your editor will manage this directly. If you’re having any issues with your editor, just contact us at support@clipt.co to let us know what’s going on.

We require a 30-day written notice prior to cancellation.
