video

You shot the footage. We'll craft the story.

Bumpers, recaps, testimonies, and the vertical cuts that come out of them. Upload what you captured on Sunday and get an edit back.

what we edit

The formats church life actually generates.

A sermon, a testimony, a baptism, an event recap, and a week of vertical cuts. They are different edits, not one file resized.

  • Sermon bumpers

    The 20 seconds before the message that set the tone and buy your speaker a clean start.

  • Event recaps

    Camp, retreat, baptism Sunday, and mission trips, cut down to something people will actually finish.

  • Testimony films

    Interview footage edited into a story, with the pauses and the false starts taken out.

  • Announcement videos

    The thing you would otherwise read from the stage, made watchable.

  • Motion graphics

    Lower thirds, titles, countdowns, and logo animations built on your brand.

how it works

Upload Sunday, review on a schedule.

The part churches usually find hardest is knowing when it will be back.

  1. Step 1

    Send the footage

    Raw files, a camera card export, or a shared drive link for anything large. Send the originals rather than a compressed export, because we can work down from a big file and not up from a small one.
  2. Step 2

    Tell us the cut

    Length, where it is playing, and what it needs to do. A stage bumper and a reel are not the same edit.
  3. Step 3

    Watch the first pass

    You review the edit and send timestamped notes rather than describing a moment from memory.
  4. Step 4

    Get every version

    Horizontal for the room, vertical for social, and the project files, all yours to keep.

who it's for

For churches with footage and nobody to cut it.

The camera part is usually solved. It's the edit where Sunday's video sits on a hard drive until somebody finds an evening for it.

  • A volunteer camera teamThey shoot well and they're gone by Monday morning. We pick up the file and send back the cut.
  • A pastor who wants sermon clipsThe message is already recorded, and pulling the moments worth sharing out of it is the part nobody has time for.
  • A church launching a seriesThe bumper, the promo, and the recap all land inside the same two weeks. That stretch is what an editing queue is for.
  • A church with one editorYour editor keeps the projects that need them in the room, and the rest come to us.

questions

Questions churches ask about handing over footage.

Billing and how a project moves through production are answered on our FAQ page.

What kinds of video do you edit?

Sermon bumpers, event recaps and promos, testimony films, announcement videos, countdowns, and the vertical cuts pulled out of a message. You send what you captured and we handle the edit.

How far ahead should we send video work?

Two weeks for a bumper, a recap, or an announcement video. Full sermon production works differently: files in by 10am Eastern on Monday come back by end of day Tuesday.

How should we film video before sending it to you?

Shoot horizontally unless the piece is for stories or reels, get the microphone close to whoever is talking, and light faces from the front rather than the window behind them. Those three cover most of what comes back needing a reshoot. The two guides below go through the rest, including framing, file formats and what to send us.

How many graphic and video projects can we have going at once?

Your plan sets how many graphic and video projects are actively in production at a time: 15 on All-In Premium, 15 on All-In, 12 on Graphics + Video, 7 on Graphics. When one finishes, the next one starts. Nothing expires and nothing is wasted. On the All-In tiers, website support and brand support don’t count toward that number. They each have their own: one sermon upload a week plus one active website task, and one active brand request at a time. Submit as much as you like, anything over your limit simply queues.

What if we don’t like a design?

Send it back and we will fix it, at no extra charge. Most churches find the Squad learns their taste within the first few projects.

What happens to a project after we submit it?

It lands in Open, and our project manager moves it from there: into Received once we have everything we need, or into More Info Needed if something is missing. Leave it where it is in either case, because moving it yourself is how a project gets lost. When your designer finishes, it moves to a column with a Dropbox link to your files, and you either approve it or send feedback. The walkthrough below has the whole board.

Who is actually doing the work?

A real Squad of church creatives, many of them former church staff who have run a communications calendar themselves. You are not routed to a different stranger each week.

Who owns the work?

You do, including the editable source files, and it stays yours whether or not you remain a member.

I can expect to see a video when they say it's gonna happen. To me, that's super rare.
