Studios Are Now Outsourcing Their Wedding Video Editing. Here’s Why.
When you think of professional studios, you’d think that everything from the development and pre-production to the post-production, distribution and exhibition would be done “in-house”, but filmmakers and industry professionals know otherwise. Even for big studios, there are the odd occasions where their resources aren’t enough and relying on others is a big help. They will often use freelancers and those they can trust, but they do sometimes rely on outsourced professionals to help them, especially for their video editing. That’s right. Studios are now outsourcing their wedding video editing. Here’s why.
Outsourced = Reliable
If you’ve ever tried to find your own video editor, you may have come across freelance websites or media job sites where freelancers advertise their services and portfolios. Unfortunately, a lot of the time, you doubt whether they’re telling the truth about their work or not, especially for the price they advertise. Sometimes, a freelancer can overprice their services, in which case, it’s a rip-off, or they under-price, and eventually, more hidden costs crop up, or the quality of their work is very poor.
With outsourced video editors, you’ll get what you’ve been promised, high quality and reliable service. Most outsourcing companies always check, double-check, and even triple-check their employees and partners to ensure that their company can be relied upon. So, when you outsource your video editing job, you can be sure that the service you’re getting is professional enough.

Outsourced = Reasonable
We’ve mentioned this before, freelancers can overprice or under-price their work, and regardless of the quality of the work, sometimes it can be too expensive and too good to be true. What that means is, some “professional” freelance video editors may charge you thousands of dollars for a small social media edit. So, if you’re uploading your wedding video to social media platforms, you wouldn’t want an hour-long video, a few minutes would do, but because you’re working with “professionals”, they will charge you from as much as $500 for a 3-minute video. Talk about expensive!
With outsourced video editors, what they say is what you get. There are no hidden costs because there are set price packages that outsourcing companies will offer, and depending on the package, you’ll get what you asked for. So, instead of a $500 3-minute video, you could be paying as little as $30 or $50 for it. So, why run the risk of being scammed when you know your video edit is in safe hands with an outsourced video editor?
Outsourced = Experienced
While reliability is essential, so too is experience when it comes to video editing. Of course, you may want to help an amateur out, especially if you know who that video editor is, and you can trust them, but why choose a mediocre editor? There are hundreds of experienced editors who can match your style and vision. By relying on a freelancer, you’re risking the integrity of your files. After all, many amateur video editors will play with their software to see what they can do with your video, and sometimes their ego can get in the way. They may think that they’re the next Steven Spielberg or George Lucas when their skills prove that they couldn’t be farther from the truth.
Trusting an outsourcing company not only ensures that your videos will be handled with care, but they will be handled by a professional. Not only that, you won’t even have to worry about corrupt or damaged files. Outsourced video editors know how important a file is and can be. So, they know exactly how to use your footage without damaging them. Not to mention, they’ll have the tools they need in case something does go wrong.
Outsourced = Simple
With freelance video editors, you never really know what you’re going to get, and sometimes, they will need teams of other specialists to help them. What that means is your video editor may not know how to work a particular software, so they get someone else to do it for them. That would be an added cost, which you didn’t expect. Eventually, you’ll find yourself funding an entire editing team for one small wedding video, and you’ve spent almost as much as you did for the wedding, for the edit of the video. Not only that, but if you’re not present every step of the way, you may not even like what you get in the end. So, you’ll want to get it cleaned up and fixed by another editing team. It’s a vicious cycle.
That’s why trusting outsourced video editors is a better option. Not only do you get experienced and reliable editors, but you will only deal with one video editor. Of course, on their end, they may need some advice and help, but you won’t need to deal with that. They will. You won’t suffer the headache of liaising with an animator, or a colour-grader, to get a particular shot to match a previous one. They will. So, spare yourself the headache of video editing jargon and demands, use an outsourced video editor who knows what you need and will deliver what you want. It’s simple.
