Reels & shorts editing in Chennai

You have about one second before a thumb decides. The edit has to earn that second, then the next ten, and it has to do it with the sound off.

What goes into one reel

Six things, every time. None of them optional, none of them charged separately.

01

A hook in the first second

The strongest frame goes first, even if it happened last. Chronology is not a structure.

02

Captions built for mute

Burned in, timed to speech, and positioned clear of the UI so nothing sits under the like button.

03

Sound design

Licensed music, cleaned dialogue and cuts placed on the beat so the pacing feels deliberate.

04

Colour

Graded in Resolve so phone footage from three different days looks like one shoot.

05

Three crops

9:16, 1:1 and 16:9 from the same edit, reframed properly rather than letterboxed.

06

A cover frame

A designed thumbnail so your grid looks composed instead of like a wall of random stills.

One-off or monthly

Posting weekly costs less per reel and gets priority in the queue.

Reels editing FAQs

How much does reel editing cost in Chennai?

₹1,500 for a single reel up to sixty seconds. Monthly packs bring it down to ₹1,250 or ₹1,125 per reel depending on volume, and those get priority in the queue.

How fast do I get it back?

Twenty-four to forty-eight hours normally. If the footage and caption text arrive in the morning and the schedule allows, same-day is often possible — worth asking rather than assuming.

Can you edit footage shot on a phone?

Yes, most short-form work is. What matters more than the camera is stable framing and usable audio. If a clip has a problem editing cannot fix, I will tell you before starting rather than after.

Do you write the captions and hook?

I write the on-screen text and structure the hook from your footage. If you want the spoken script written too, that is a separate conversation — I would rather you sound like yourself.

Will the music get my post muted?

No. I use licensed or royalty-free tracks only. If you want a trending audio, add it inside the app after posting — I deliver a clean version with the sound design mixed to allow for that.

What do I actually receive?

The reel in 9:16, plus 1:1 and 16:9 crops reframed properly, a designed cover frame, and the caption text as a copyable file. Everything named so you can upload without renaming.
