What does short-form video editing cost?

The useful question is not just “How much per video?” It is “What exactly is included in that video?” These are BEJÚ’s own prices, not an industry-wide average.

BEJÚ’s short-form guide prices

These are guide prices for typical 15–40 second edits using footage you provide. The length of the source recording and more involved requirements can change the quote. Send the footage and brief so we can confirm scope before payment.

For example, five typical edits from a suitable recording are listed at $75 in total. That arithmetic does not mean every five-video project has identical scope. Extra versions, substantial cleanup or custom graphics should be specified before the quote is agreed.

See our short-form editing service and actual editing examples alongside the prices.

What changes an editing quote?

A finished clip may be short while the source recording is long. Selecting five usable moments from an interview is a different task from receiving five approved timestamp ranges. Tell the editor which job you need.

For interview footage, our podcast repurposing guide explains how to prepare a usable brief. Coaches can use the same checklist for lessons and talking-head content.

What should you confirm before paying?

Agree the number of finished clips, source material, target platforms, style references and required export versions. Check whether captions, sound treatment and any graphics shown in your references are part of the agreed edit. A portfolio reference should start that conversation, not silently expand the scope.

BEJÚ includes one revision round within the agreed brief. Standard short-form delivery is within 24 hours after payment, usable footage and the brief are confirmed. If a larger order or significant cleanup needs longer, we agree timing upfront.

Our one-time free custom sample requires no payment, card or purchase commitment. It helps you assess style before ordering; it is not a paid package or a promise that every later request is included.

Long-form is a separate package

BEJÚ’s published long-form prices are $75 for one finished video, $180 for three and $255 for five. These are separate from short-form clips; ordering five shorts does not also buy an edited full episode. Confirm the source length and finished-video requirements before ordering.

A SaaS or app launch film is quoted per project because the product story, motion work, length and deadline vary. Do not use the $75 short-form package as a launch-film quote.

Compare equivalent deliverables

Put two quotes side by side using the same brief. Compare finished clip count, source duration, visual treatment, export versions, revisions and delivery timing. A lower headline price is not useful if it excludes the work you need; a higher price is not proof of a better fit.

For an ongoing arrangement, agree how many deliverables are included in each billing period, how footage is supplied and when feedback is due. Avoid treating “unlimited” as a delivery schedule. A written scope makes both the workload and your content calendar easier to plan.

How does the performance guarantee affect the price?

It does not make the order free upfront. Eligible paid short-form packages can qualify for a full refund if the measured package average misses twice the baseline agreed before payment and the posting and claim conditions are met.

Before payment, we note the public view counts of your last 10 clips on one account that are at least 30 days old; their average is the baseline you confirm before paying. With fewer than three such clips, the guarantee does not apply. Your package is measured on each clip’s views in its first 30 days after posting. The baseline remains fixed for three months, then is reassessed for future orders. Long-form edits and launch films are excluded; style dissatisfaction alone does not trigger this performance refund.

Read the full guarantee terms before choosing an eligible package. Then send your footage and brief so we can confirm the right scope.
