We had the pleasure of working with Here Now Films on a recent project that required sourcing film crews in multiple locations on short notice. Despite the tight deadlines and logistical challenges, they exceeded our expectations in every way.Their ability to quickly assemble professional and talented crews was impressive, and their dedication to meeting our deadlines was commendable. The quality of the content produced was outstanding and played a crucial role in the success of our project.We highly recommend Here Now Films for any production needs. Their professionalism, efficiency, and commitment to excellence make them an invaluable partner.

Sam Manning

Ed and Ted created a micro-documentary for us showcasing an innovative project in Cornwall, they were highly professional, fitted in seamlessly with a highly complex and fast paced day of activity and logistics, while building instant rapport with the multiple people involved in the day. In the end they produced a brilliant product for us delivering exactly to the brief, telling the story of the project with creative flare, style and depth. I'd highly recommenced them to anyone looking to create high quality, watchable content, with a company that has a journalistic and high level of attention to detail and adaptable approach to covering a story. Also great fun to work with in general from the creative planning stages through to filming.

Response from the owner: Sam thank you for such a great review. Project was epic and you guys absolutely nailed the organisation and logistics of everything. I’m glad youLove the film as much as we do! Looking forward to the next. Ed

Great team, great energy, and most importantly a great end product. Ed and his team have helped me on a number of projects from events to brand films and they've always delivered above and beyond. If you're thinking of working with a video production company in London then i'd really recommend giving Here Now a call.

London Post-Production FAQs

Post-production comes in many shapes and sizes and understandably people often have a lot of questions before we kick of a project.

Here are some of the most common questions people ask before a project starts and a few questions we often pose to our clients before getting going.

What does a post-production studio do?

A post production studio deals with creative processes after the filming has wrapped. This includes sorting through footage, highlighting selects, cutting the footage together into sequences, delivering sound design, colour grading and more.

We have a great roster of creatives that we work closely with on our own personal projects and so can say hand on heart that your project will be in safe hands.

Does the film need to be finished before it’s graded?

Yes, we recommend finishing the film before the colour grading takes place. We know this can be annoying if you want to see how the film will look at the point you are currently at.

Colour grading takes a lot of time and requires the grader to go through every scene, and sometimes every frame, to make sure the colour is correct. If we do this on a film that’s not finished we’ll have to do it all over again on a new part of the film.

How much does colour grading cost?

Colour grading varies in price but a good estimate is somewhere between £700 per day up to £2,000 per day depending on who you use.

We charge £1,000 per day for colour grading

How much does video editing cost?

Video editing and general post production costs anywhere between £300 – £1,000 per day depending on the project and the reputation of the studio you use.

We charge £750 per day for our editing fees which includes everything required to take the raw footage through to the finished, un colour graded film.

The average cost of post production is about £2,000-£3,000 +Vat.

How long does it take to edit a video?

Editing can take anywhere from two days up to a couple of months, depending on the project. Our projects usually take between three to ten days to edit.

Are you a documentary post production studio?

As one of London’s leading documentary production studios we are well versed and filming, and editing documentaries.

Documentary editing is different to classic post production due to the nuances of understanding complex human centred topics.

Are you a broadcast post production studio in London?

Here Now Films is proud to have edited productions for the likes of BBC World to audiences of hundreds of millions.

If you have a documentary looking to make it onto TV we’d be more than comfortable taking the work on. We also understand the nuances of Clear Cast and the other hoops required to get a production onto air.

Do you deliver colour grading in London?

We deliver colour grading for productions of all shapes and sizes through our trusted network of freelance colourists.

Our colourists are tired and tested through working on our own projects.
