Why creators switch

The freelancer treadmill vs. a team that just delivers.

The usual wayHiring editors yourself

  • Months of back-and-forth before they get your style
  • Slow, unpredictable turnarounds
  • Surprise rate hikes once it's finally working
  • Ghosting, re-hiring, re-training — on repeat
  • Thumbnails, captions & shorts cost extra
  • No second reviewer — mistakes slip straight through

With Black BulbA dedicated, vetted editor

  • We nail your style from the first draft — 90% of the time
  • Fast, predictable delivery — as quick as same day
  • One flat subscription — scale up or down anytime
  • A team behind you — never left without an editor
  • Editing, thumbnails, design & shorts all included
  • Every video triple-checked before delivery
How it works

From raw footage to published — without the hassle.

1

Subscribe & tell us your style

Sign up in minutes and share a reference or two — a couple of videos you love, or your own back catalogue. It's fully self-serve, so there's no waiting around to get started.

2

Drop your footage in the portal

Upload your first project the moment you subscribe — your dedicated editor picks it up as soon as they're next online. The tip for max output: always keep one project in the queue while another is in progress, so your editor never sits idle.

3

Your dedicated editor gets to work

A vetted editor cuts your video — pacing, graphics, color, sound, captions — and designs your thumbnails, all on-brand and matched to your audience.

4

Review on Frame.io, frame by frame

Comment directly on any frame to give notes. Happy? Do nothing. Want a tweak? Hit request a revision and we expedite it — unlimited revisions, always.

5

Approve, publish, repurpose

Ship it — then ask for shorts or cut-downs from the same footage with no re-uploading. Sponsored segment? Send the brief and assets; we cut to spec.

Effortless submission

Your footage, one reference link — that's the whole brief.

Most clients send exactly two things: the raw footage and a link to a reference video — one of your own, or any YouTube video whose style you want matched. That's it. No brief, no checklist, nothing else to prepare.

If you've hired freelancers, you know the alternative: pages of forms describing every cut, caption and color — spelling out the edit takes nearly as long as making it. Our editors are trained for the opposite. They study your reference and nail the style from minimal instructions — usually on the first draft.

Got something specific in mind? Send as much detail as you like and we'll follow it to the letter. Instructions are always welcome — they're just never required.

90%
first-video approval rate
Nine times out of ten, our very first edit for a new client is approved with no further feedback — just from footage and a reference.
The standard

We get it right the first time.

That number is the whole pitch. It's why creators stop dreading the editing hand-off — because what comes back is already the video they wanted, not a starting point to argue with.

Month to month

Flex up, flex down, cancel anytime.

Your content schedule isn't fixed, so your plan isn't either. Adjust month to month to match what you're actually producing — none of the rigidity, lock-in, or hassle you get with a contractor.

Big month coming?Increase your hours instantly — double your output for a launch or a busy stretch, then dial it back after.
Taking a break?Cancel any time and pick back up when you're ready — ideal for a vacation month or a slow patch.
Always your callYou set your capacity around your production, not the other way round. No contracts to fight.

Upgrade any time during the month (prorated for the days remaining); downgrades and cancellations take effect at the start of your next billing cycle.

Editor boot camp

Why the editing is this good.

Anyone can call themselves an editor. Ours earn it — most applicants never make the cut, so you don't have to do the searching.

<5%

Make the editing team

Fewer than 1 in 20 editors who apply clear our bar and boot camp. We do the hard work of finding great talent for you.

Any style, any niche

Trained to cut gaming, cooking, vlogs, ASMR, education and more — fast, punchy or cinematic.

Matched to you

We pair you with the editor whose strengths fit your content, then dial in your exact taste.

Quality-checked

We review work against your style and retention goals — so every cut earns its place.

Quality control

Every video gets three expert reviews — before it reaches you.

Your dedicated editor is already one of the best — we just back every cut with extra expert eyes, so even the smallest details get caught. It's a safeguard a freelancer can't offer, included with every plan, free.

1

Your dedicated editor

A vetted, top-tier editor — one of the under-5% who make our team — builds your full edit around your style, references and retention goals. Start to finish, it's theirs.

2

An independent review

A second editor reviews the finished cut with completely fresh eyes — pacing, audio, graphics and the details that are easy to miss — and sharpens anything that can be better.

3

Final sign-off

Our editing department head takes the final look and signs off — so nothing reaches you until it clears the same high bar, every single video.

Included free — every plan, every video
Five-star rated by the creators we edit for
★★★★★

"With freelancers I'd spend more time explaining how to structure a video than it would've taken to do it myself. I handed Black Bulb the whole folder and was blown away by what came back — the flow, the color grading, all of it. They hit basically every first draft. I knew I'd regret not doing this sooner."

Butcher Wizard · Creator
★★★★★

"The edit looked awesome, as always — and the sound effects are a great addition. I loved getting three thumbnails for A/B testing. You can tell they care, not just about me, but about the show my audience is watching."

Yogii Waifu · Creator
★★★★★

"I love what the Black Bulb team does with my videos — always above and beyond with graphics, calls to action, and thumbnails I don't have to worry about anymore. It's great not to have to think about the quality."

HungryHussey · Creator
★★★★★

"They understand the influencer space and enhance my videos without overdoing it. I've tried other services — this one stands out for quality and industry knowledge."

Hayden Green · Creator
★★★★★

"Consistently impressed with the quality. The editing is top-notch, communication is seamless, and the ordering process couldn't be easier."

Library of a Viking · Creator
★★★★★

"They work with a variety of editing styles, always deliver, and brought a consistency my audience has noticed."

Questions

Good questions, straight answers.

Do I need to be on your roster?
No. Video editing is open to every creator — you don't need representation to subscribe. The two services are completely separate.
How soon can I start?
Right away. Signing up, onboarding and uploading are all self-serve through the portal — submit your first project the moment you subscribe, and your dedicated editor begins as soon as they're next online. Full onboarding completes within 24 hours.
What kinds of content can you edit?
Gaming, cooking, vlogs, beauty, fitness, education, ASMR — whatever you make. We already edit for cooking channels like HungryHussey and Butcher Wizard, gaming creators, and plenty in between, so your style is in good hands.
How fast will I get my video back?
It depends on your plan: standard 2-day on Growth, 1-day on most Daily edits, and same-day available on Premium. Length and complexity can shift that, and your editor will always flag timing up front.
Are the plans really unlimited?
Projects, revisions and raw-footage submissions are unlimited. What's fixed is capacity — the dedicated editing hours per workday in your plan. To get the most out of it, keep at least one project in the queue so your editor is never waiting.
What if I need changes?
Leave comments right on the frame in Frame.io, then hit "request a revision" in the portal and we expedite it. Revisions are unlimited — we work it until you're happy.
Can I get shorts or cut-downs from a video?
Yes. Link the original project and we'll pull shorts, cut-downs or clips from the same footage — no re-uploading required.
Can I upgrade, downgrade, or pause?
Total flexibility. Increase your hours any time during the month (prorated), and downgrades or cancellations take effect at the start of your next cycle. Pause for a vacation month and resume when you're ready — no long-term contracts.
What about sponsored segments?
Send us the brand brief and assets and we'll cut the segment to spec, woven naturally into your video.
