Video editing FAQ

Straight answers to what brands, creators and agencies ask before hiring a video editing studio: how fast first cuts arrive, how many revision rounds you get, how to share footage through Drive, Dropbox or Frame.io, what the plans include, and how we work with you, or quietly under your agency's name.

Pricing

How much does video editing cost at RaRe Frames?

How much does Reel editing cost?

A Reel or Short up to 60 seconds costs ₹1,499, and the first cut arrives in about 48 hours. Longer or motion-heavy short videos are quoted on their length and the design work involved.

Is there a trial edit?

Yes. The ₹999 trial edit is one short-form edit up to 60 seconds with captions, music and colour, and it includes 2 revision rounds.

Turnaround & revisions

How fast is the first cut?

About 48 hours for short-form edits such as Reels, Shorts and short ads. YouTube and podcast edits, explainers and motion graphics run on a timeline agreed per brief, because length and the amount of animation set the schedule.

Read the full answer →

Which plan gets priority turnaround?

The Growth plan: its Reels get 48-hour priority turnaround, alongside a named lead editor and motion designer. On any plan, share fixed launch or posting dates with your brief so the first cut and feedback are planned around them.

Why do you send a rough cut first?

So you approve the story before the polish. Motion, captions, music, sound and colour go on only after you sign off the rough cut, which keeps big changes early and quick. The ₹999 trial edit includes 2 revision rounds.

Files & footage

How do I send footage?

Share a folder link from Google Drive, Dropbox or Frame.io with the raw clips and a short brief. Keeping one folder per video, with clear file names, makes the handover quicker.

What should we send to get started?

Your footage and a short brief are enough to begin. If you have them, add your logo, fonts and colours, two or three reference videos you like and the platforms the video is for, so the first cut already looks like your brand.

Which aspect ratios do you deliver?

Every format you post in: 9:16 for Reels and Shorts, 4:5 and 1:1 for feed posts, and 16:9 for YouTube and websites. List the platforms in your brief.

Can you edit footage shot on a phone?

Yes. Phone footage and cinema-camera footage both work. Send the original files rather than copies forwarded through a chat app, which are usually compressed.

Working with us

How do we start a project with you?

Send a short brief and a footage link through the contact page, or email hello@rareframes.io. We reply within one working day and agree the scope and price, then you get a rough cut to approve before the finishing work begins.

Can teams outside India outsource their editing to you?

Yes. Brands, creators and agencies worldwide send footage through Google Drive, Dropbox or Frame.io, so the project runs fully online, and our published prices are in INR. Read how to outsource video editing to India.

Should we choose motion graphics or animation?

Choose motion graphics to explain or sell with designed type, icons, interfaces and logos, and character animation when the story needs characters acting it out. Many projects mix both, such as a 2D character scene inside an explainer.

Read the full answer →

How long should an explainer video be?

As short as your one main message allows: usually 30 seconds for a single feature, 60 seconds for problem, solution and how it works, and 90 seconds for a fuller product walkthrough.

Agencies

Do you sign NDAs?

Yes. Agency work runs under an NDA, with footage kept in private shared folders.

Can we start with a test edit?

Yes. Send one real brief as a test edit and judge the cut, the pacing and our communication before adding us to your pipeline.
