Video Editing and Post Production in Amman

Post production turns raw footage into finished, platform-ready content: editing, motion graphics, sound, colour and subtitles. We work on material we shot ourselves and on footage you already own. A standard edit is delivered in five to ten working days with one revision round included.

We shape raw ideas and footage into finished pieces that match the platform, the audience and the intended business result.

What we can deliver

What post production covers

  1. 01

    Content concepts and scripts

    The idea and the script before the edit begins - including deciding which of the footage you already have is worth using and which is not.

  2. 02

    Video editing and motion graphics

    Story, pacing and rhythm, plus titles, lower thirds, animated logos and explanatory motion where a graphic says it faster than a sentence.

  3. 03

    Audio editing and sound finishing

    Dialogue cleanup, music selection and licensing guidance, sound effects, and a final mix levelled correctly for each platform.

  4. 04

    Colour correction and grading

    Matching shots so a sequence looks like one piece, then a grade that supports the mood rather than announcing itself.

  5. 05

    Versions for every platform

    One edit exported as the 16:9 master, the 9:16 vertical, the square cut and the six second bumper - with captions, because most social video is watched with the sound off.

Editing footage you already own

A lot of Jordanian companies have hard drives full of material from an event, a factory tour or an old campaign that was never finished. Editing existing footage is usually the cheapest content you can produce, because the expensive part - the shoot - is already paid for.

The honest caveat is that post production cannot add what was never recorded. Missing coverage, unusable audio and shots with no room to crop vertically are limits, not challenges. We review the material first and tell you what can realistically come out of it before you commit to anything.

Music, fonts and licensing

The part of post production most likely to cause a problem months later is the part nobody asks about at the start.

  • Music is licensed per project from a commercial library, and the licence is issued in your name so the ad cannot be taken down later.
  • Popular chart music is almost never licensable for a business ad in this region at a sensible cost, and using it anyway risks the account, not just the post.
  • Fonts used in motion graphics need a licence that covers video, which is not always the same as a desktop licence.
  • Stock footage and stock images used to fill gaps are declared in the quote with their source and licence.

Process

How an edit moves from rushes to final

The exact scope changes with the project, but the thinking stays focused and transparent.

01

Choose the strongest idea and format

Before touching the timeline we agree what this piece is for and how long it should be. Length is a decision, not a result of how much footage exists.

02

Edit story, pace, sound and look

A first cut for structure, then sound, motion and colour once the structure is agreed. Reviewing a graded cut before the story is settled wastes everyone time.

03

Review, finish and export every version

One revision round on the cut, then final finishing and export of every format agreed in the brief.

What determines the price

Two projects with the same name can differ several times over in cost. These are the variables that actually move the number, so you can judge any quote you receive - ours or anyone else's.

  • The finished length, and how much raw material has to be reviewed to get there.
  • Whether motion graphics are involved, and how much of the piece they cover.
  • Whether colour grading and a full sound mix are needed or a straight cut is enough.
  • How many platform versions and aspect ratios are exported.
  • Whether subtitles are needed, and in how many languages.

Send us the scope and you get a written quote with a fixed figure, usually within one working day. The number does not change unless the scope changes in writing.

Questions about sending us your footage

Can you edit footage we filmed ourselves?

Yes, and it is often the best value work we do. Send us a sample first - we review what is usable, tell you honestly what can come out of it, and quote against that rather than against an optimistic assumption.

How fast can you turn around an edit?

A short social edit takes two to four working days. A longer piece with motion graphics and colour takes five to ten. Same-week rush work is possible when the schedule allows and is priced separately.

How many revisions do we get?

One round is included, applied after you review the first cut. Additional rounds are billed by the hour, which is unusual to say out loud but keeps the quote honest instead of hiding open-ended revisions inside it.

Do you provide subtitles in Arabic and English?

Yes, in both, either burned into the video or as separate SRT files. Captions matter more than most clients expect - the majority of social video is watched with the sound off.

Can you make vertical versions of an existing wide video?

Usually, but not always well. If the original was framed without vertical in mind, faces and products end up cropped out. We check the footage first and say if a reframe will work or if it is worth reshooting the key shots.

Who owns the music and can we use the video in ads?

Music is licensed per project in your name, and every delivered piece is cleared for commercial and paid use. Any stock element appears in the quote with its licence, so nothing surprises you later.

Have a project in mind?

Have footage sitting unused?

Tell us the scope and we reply with a written quote, a timeline and the questions we still need answered.
