Services

Editing built for how people watch today

Reels, ads, AI UGC, podcasts and promos each need a different kind of edit. Pick one service or combine them, and we’ll build a workflow around your content calendar.

01 / Short-form

Reels, YouTube Shorts & TikTok editing

What you get

Vertical 9:16 videos edited to hold attention from the first second: a sharp hook, tight cuts, animated captions, b-roll, music and your brand style, ready to post on Instagram, YouTube, TikTok and Facebook.

  • Hook-first structure: the reason to keep watching shows up in the first two seconds.
  • Smart reframing keeps faces and action centred when horizontal footage goes vertical.
  • Animated captions, because many people watch with the sound off.
  • Safe-zone exports at 1080 × 1920, so text isn’t hidden behind app buttons.
02 / Paid social

Meta & TikTok ad editing

What you get

Performance-focused ads for Meta, TikTok and YouTube, cut from product footage or creator UGC and delivered in several hook, length and aspect-ratio variations, so your media buyer has real options to test.

  • Hook, problem, product, proof, offer: a proven structure adapted to your brand.
  • UGC-style edits that feel native to the feed, not like a TV commercial.
  • 9:16, 4:5 and 1:1 versions from the same footage, with clear calls to action.
03 / AI creative

AI UGC & AI animation

What you get

AI-presenter UGC ads, AI product videos and animated stories, scripted, generated and then edited by a human, so you can test many creative angles without booking a shoot for each one.

  • AI presenters for talking-head ads in different looks and tones.
  • AI animation, from clay-style stories to product visuals.
  • Human review of every frame, caption and claim before delivery.
04 / Long-form

Podcast editing & podcast clips

What you get

A clean, watchable full episode for YouTube and podcast platforms, plus a batch of vertical clips from the best moments, so one recording feeds your channels all week.

  • Multi-camera switching between hosts and guests, timed to the conversation.
  • Audio clean-up: levelling, noise reduction, and removal of long pauses and filler words.
  • Clip mining: we read the full transcript and pull moments that work without context.
05 / Brand

Promo & brand videos

What you get

Website hero videos, event trailers and brand films with motion graphics, music and sound design that make a first impression worth remembering.

  • Hero videos that explain your product in under a minute.
  • Event and launch trailers with kinetic type and motion graphics.
06 / Finishing

Captions, subtitles & repurposing

What you get

Accurate, brand-styled captions on every short-form video, SRT subtitle files for long-form content, and one long video turned into many platform-ready clips.

  • AI-transcribed, human-checked captions in your fonts and colours.
  • Long-to-short repurposing of webinars, livestreams, interviews and talks.
  • Every size you need: 9:16, 4:5, 1:1 and 16:9, named for each platform.

Service FAQ

Common questions about our services

Not sure which service fits? Describe your project and we’ll recommend one.

What is the best aspect ratio for Reels, Shorts and TikTok?

Vertical 9:16 at 1080 × 1920 pixels is the standard for Instagram Reels, YouTube Shorts and TikTok. We deliver in 9:16 by default and can add 4:5 or 1:1 versions for feeds and 16:9 for YouTube or LinkedIn on request.

Can you edit UGC ads from creator footage?

Yes. Send us the raw creator clips and your product details, and we cut them into ads with a strong opening hook, a clear benefit, social proof and a call to action, usually in several variations so you can test what works.

What is AI UGC?

AI UGC is user-generated-style video made with AI presenters or AI visuals instead of filmed creators. It’s useful for testing many ad angles quickly. We script, generate, edit and caption it, and a human editor reviews every frame before delivery.

Do you edit both audio and video for podcasts?

Yes. For video podcasts we handle multi-camera switching, audio clean-up, levelling, filler-word and long-pause removal, intro and outro, and chapter markers. Audio-only episodes are available too.

How many shorts can you get from one podcast episode?

It depends on the conversation, but a typical long-form episode contains several moments that stand on their own. We review the full transcript, pick the strongest ones and agree the number of clips with you upfront.

Do you offer white-label editing for agencies?

Yes. Agencies can send client footage and briefs to us and receive finished videos with no Octopi Digital AI branding, ready to deliver under their own name.
