Production & shoot
From researching, scene and script writing to ensuring that the entire filming day runs smoothly; we handle it all. This includes shooting all the scenes with high-quality cameras, microphones and lighting – in our own studio or on location.
Post production
We get to the essence of your story and make it powerful with images and sound. We add 2D or 3D animations and other visual effects. We maximize the impact and trigger emotions with moving music and powerful voiceovers.
Repurposing Video Content for NGOs
We understand that video content is an important part of any NGOs storytelling. We also know that creating new video content can be costly and time-consuming. That's why we offer a range of services to help non-governmental organizations repurpose their existing video content.
Media management
You can review the process online at any time, give feedback and share files. We deliver your video in any required format, meeting the right color and sound standards.

Our studio

In our fully equipped studio in Utrecht we have all we need to bring your story to life so it makes a lasting impact. The studio contains three complete edit suites, including all the required software, such as Final Cut Pro, Adobe CC and Cinema 4d. We also have a sound booth to record voiceovers and engaging narratives. Our dedicated on-site server room and cloud-based workflow allows our team to join forces and turns (remote) collaborative video editing into an easy and enjoyable process.

Internships

We have been running challenging internships for 3rd and 4th year students for over 20 years. The future will be told by the youth. We see it as our responsibility to give them the knowledge and tools to do so. Even though we’ve transitioned away from functioning as a training company, our passion for empowering the next generation continues. We’re always eager to hear from those curious and aspiring individuals looking to make a difference.

The team at Editcompany just gets it. They understand the sensitivities of our mission and our business objectives and consistently create quality work that we’re proud of. And just when you think they can’t possibly get any better, they prove their value again and again. I recommend them unreservedly.

Mary Lynn Lalonde

I have been working with Editcompany for many years. Because we usually have very tight deadlines and very strict rules and regulations, we need a supplier who is flexible, accurate, pragmatic and willing to always go the extra mile. With both Maarten and Kirsten we always deliver each project to everyone’s satisfaction and I hope to work with them for many more years to come.

It is amazing to see the progress from the raw materials that we provided to the polished final videos that the team produced. Editcompany not only edited the videos but also added animations and helped us improve the scripts. The flexibility, quick responses, and willingness to always think along and go that extra mile, made working with Editcompany an absolute pleasure.

Rob Patmore

Kirsten and Maarten totally understand the nuances and subtleties of film production. Nuances that make the difference between a video being just functional or truly opening people’s hearts. In the non-profit sector this can mean the difference between financial failure and success.
