Audio podcasts are great. Video podcasts are better — the same conversation, but now it works on YouTube (the world's second-largest search engine), clips become Shorts, and sponsors pay more for a face than a voice. The problem is that video multiplies the editing work: multiple camera angles, sync issues, filler that was invisible in audio but glaring on camera, plus all the packaging a video platform demands.
Our video podcast editing service takes you from raw recording to published episode — the video edit, chapters, show notes and Shorts clips — so you can focus on the conversation and nothing else. Full episodes are edited at our talking-head rate: $30 per finished minute, 5-hour delivery per video.
The full episode stack, handled
Multicam Sync & Switching
Every angle synced to the audio, then cut like a live director: the speaker gets the frame, reactions get cutaways.
Filler Removal
Ums, pauses, false starts and tangents cut — tightly, without chopping the natural flow of the conversation.
Audio Cleanup
Level matching between speakers, noise reduction and light EQ. Listeners forgive average video; never bad audio.
Intro Hook & Packaging
The best 15 seconds up front, title card and a clean open — YouTube viewers decide fast.
Lower Thirds & Guest Names
Guest introductions, name cards and subscribe prompts placed where they help, not annoy.
Chapters & Show Notes
Timestamped chapters and a written description with links and guest bios — the work that compounds in search.
Shorts Clips
The episode's best moments cut into captioned Shorts that drive listeners back to the full show.
Retention Pacing
Visual rhythm throughout — cuts, zooms and graphics where attention would otherwise drift.

Why video podcasts need a different edit
A proper video podcast edit is several jobs stacked together. Multicam sync and switching. Filler removal — on video, every dead second is visible. Audio cleanup, because video podcast audio is usually worse than audio-podcast audio (room echo, uneven speaker levels, background hum). And packaging for YouTube: an intro hook, lower thirds, end screens, chapters and show notes.
Bad multicam editing is worse than a single locked-off camera, and un-packaged episodes die on YouTube no matter how good the conversation was. The edit is what turns a recording into a show — timestamped chapters that become searchable segments, descriptions that rank, and an opening that signals "this is worth your time" in the first 15 seconds.
Already have episodes published as audio only? The same stack applies to your best back-catalog episodes when you re-release them on video.
Add the shorts pipeline
Every episode we edit can also feed your short-form channels. Our podcast to shorts service pulls 3-5 clips from each episode — hook-first, captioned, framed for 9:16 — and publishes a week of promotion for every recording.
Bundle both and your workflow becomes: record once, get a published episode plus a week of shorts back. Weekly shows pair this with the Growth package at $499/mo for a rolling pipeline. See pricing.

Frequently asked questions
How many camera angles can you handle?
As many as you record — wide shots, per-speaker close-ups, screen shares. We sync everything to the master audio and switch like a live director.
What do I send you?
Links are fine: Riverside, Zoom, Drive, Dropbox or YouTube. Send the raw recording and any brand assets (logo, intro) once; we keep them on file.
How much does it cost?
Full episodes at $30 per finished minute — the same rate as our talking-head editing — with chapters and show notes included. Shorts clipped from the episode are $15 each. Your first sample edit is free.
How fast is turnaround?
within 5 hours of your requirements as standard, so weekly shows stay on schedule.
Can you also make the Shorts?
Yes — that's our podcast to shorts service, and most video podcast clients bundle both: full episode edit plus 3-5 captioned clips per episode.
Do you write the show notes?
Yes. Every episode edit includes timestamped chapters and a written description with links and guest bios, ready to paste into YouTube.
