Not just edited. Decided.

What should they do after watching? Every video starts there.

Most company video looks fine and says nothing. Erik works out what yours is for with you, in five lines, then cuts everything that doesn’t serve it. One person decides, not a committee. That’s also why it’s fast: first version in less than 5 working days.

How every video starts

Five lines. Then the edit.

Before anyone films or cuts, we agree on five things. Skip this step and you get the video that looks fine and says nothing.

  1. Who it’s for. One person, not “our audience”.
  2. What they should do after watching. One action. No action, no reason to watch.
  3. The one thing to remember. Just one. Two messages means two videos.
  4. Where it plays. It decides length, ratio and the first three seconds.
  5. What it must not be. The fastest way to agree on taste.

Free, about three minutes. Nothing is sent until you press Send; then it arrives as your brief.

Why it works

Why it lands, and why it’s fast.

  1. Starts from the point.Five lines before the first cut, so every decision after that has something to answer to.
  2. Cut to the point.The good take that doesn’t serve the brief goes. Bland video is usually everything kept and nothing chosen.
  3. One person decides.No account manager, producer and junior editor each softening it a little. You brief the person who makes the call.
  4. Fast, because nothing waits.No layers, no queue, no discovery phase on the invoice. First version in less than 5 working days.
