Hotels.

Long-formShort-formThumbnail

A long-form travel video built around four Alpine hotels, reviews, experiences and the trip between them.

We edited the long-form video, cut five shorts for the same project and designed the thumbnail.

01 Long-form

Long-form,
properly edited.

01 Long-form

We take your raw footage and turn it into finished YouTube videos.

Structure, pacing, B-roll, sound, color and everything in between. You film the podcast or the interview. We find the story in it.

02 Short-form

Short-form from
what you already have.

02 Short-form

One recording. A week of vertical content.

We find the strongest moments in your long-form content and cut them into short videos for Instagram Reels, TikTok and YouTube Shorts.

Hooks / Reframing / Captions / Pacing

03 Thumbnails

Thumbnails that
fit the video.

03 Thumbnails

The click happens before the first frame.

We design thumbnails around the actual video and what needs to land at a glance. Sometimes that means a proper shoot.

04 Sound & color

Finished,
not just cut.

04 Sound & color

Good editing is mostly good decisions.

Not every shot needs an effect. Not every pause needs to go. We care about structure, pacing, sound, color and knowing what to leave out.
