MADE FOR YOUR NEXTRECIPE / FOOD STORY / KITCHEN SHORTYOUR FOOTAGE. YOUR FINAL SAY.

AN EDIT THAT SERVES THE STORY

Start with the moment.
Shape everything around it.

01
Map the recipe
Put steps in cooking order. Label quantities and timings from your own recipe; don’t let a quick cut hide an essential instruction.
02
Show the change
Keep the moments that explain texture, colour or doneness. Speed through repetition while leaving the technique visible.
03
Let the food finish
End on the plated result. Balance useful captions with close-ups and the sound of the kitchen.

STEAL THE STARTING POINT

Your first brief,
already taking shape.

Bring your footage into the editor, tell the agent what matters, then review its work. Adapt this brief to the clips you actually have.

THE EDITING BRIEF

Edit this into a clear recipe video. Keep the steps in order and preserve the key technique shots. Use my supplied ingredient quantities for text. Shorten repetitive prep, keep the cooking sounds, and finish on the plated dish.

A starting point you can adapt to your own footage.

Before your first cut.

Can I put ingredients on screen?+

Yes. Add text to the timeline and check every quantity against your recipe. Keep labels readable long enough for viewers to follow.

Should every step be fast?+

No. Give unfamiliar techniques and changes in texture enough time. Shorten repetition, not the explanation.

What does it cost?+
