Editing that still sounds like you

Build a Recognizable Style Without Losing Your Personality

01

Keep the delivery natural

Editing can remove dead space, unnecessary pauses, repeated thoughts, weak takes and distractions without making the speaker sound unnatural or overly scripted.

02

Build a recognizable visual language

Supplied or established fonts, colors, captions, graphic styles, lower thirds, B-roll treatment, music and transitions create consistency across recurring content.

03

Match an existing style

85thAgency can work from your previous videos, reference creators, existing edits or brand guidelines to follow an established visual direction instead of forcing every personal brand into the same editing template.

04

Let the personality lead

Graphics, motion and effects should support what the person is saying rather than competing with them.

Get More From the Content You Already Record

Personal brands often have useful content already sitting inside longer recordings. When enough usable material exists, 85thAgency can turn that footage into additional edited assets — for social media video editing or short-form video editing workflows.

Already recorded

  • Podcasts
  • Interviews
  • Webinars
  • Presentations
  • YouTube recordings
  • Talking-head sessions
  • Q&A recordings

Can become

  • Short clips from longer recordings
  • Different platform formats
  • Shorter cutdowns
  • Individual topic clips
  • Captioned vertical versions
  • Alternate openings where the footage supports them

The amount of content that can be created depends on the quality, length and variety of the footage supplied.

Built for people who publish repeatedly

Stay Focused on the Ideas. Outsource the Editing.

U.S.-based company, 20+ editors

85thAgency is a U.S.-based video editing company supported by a team of 20+ editors, providing recurring editing capacity without depending entirely on one editor's availability.

Your style can stay consistent

Previous edits, reference videos and brand guidelines can be used across recurring content so you do not need to redefine the visual direction from scratch every time.

Flexible/on-demand volume

Editing volume can increase or decrease depending on how much content you record. 85thAgency uses an on-demand video-credit model, and video credits do not expire.

Short and long-form under one partner

Someone producing Reels, YouTube videos, interviews, podcasts and talking-head videos can keep multiple formats within the same editing partnership. Posting and content strategy stay with you.

Personal brand vs business

Is This Personal Brand Content or Business Content?

Personal Brand Video Editing

The person is the center of the content.

  • Founder POV
  • Coaching/education
  • Expert insights
  • Talking-head videos
  • Personal stories
  • Thought leadership
  • Creator-led content

The editing reinforces the person's voice, personality, visual identity and recurring content style.

Business Video Editing

The company, product, customer or organization is the center.

  • Customer testimonials
  • Company explainers
  • Executive messages on behalf of the company
  • Events
  • Training
  • B2B marketing content

Business video editing

A founder can produce both. The distinction is whether the content is primarily building the individual's presence or communicating on behalf of the business.

Freelance editor or editing team?

What Works Best for a Personal Brand?

Freelance Video Editor

Often a strong fit when

  • Content volume is predictable
  • One style dominates
  • One editor can comfortably handle the workload
  • The creator prefers a direct one-to-one editing relationship

85thAgency Editing Team

Useful when

  • Content is produced repeatedly
  • Output changes month to month
  • Both short and long-form are needed
  • Several editing styles or formats are involved
  • Additional capacity or backup matters

A trusted freelancer can be an excellent solution for many personal brands. 85thAgency becomes particularly useful when editing grows into a recurring production workflow that needs more flexible capacity.
