Founder
Launch
Video
Already have footage? I edit it into a launch-ready film for $499. Need the whole thing — shoot and edit? That's $1,299. Two fixed prices. No surprises.
Your story,
made
cinematic.
Most founders know their story cold — but making it land on screen is a different skill. That's the gap this package closes.
The output is a 90-second to 2-minute launch film — built to be shared on day one, to excite your first customers, signal your brand to press, and give your investors something they're proud to forward.
This has been a consistent gap in the ecosystem around Y Combinator and early-stage funding — most demo day films look like demo day films. This one shouldn't.
Post-seed or post-YC founders announcing publicly for the first time
Startups preparing a launch that needs to reach customers, press, and partners simultaneously
VC firms producing portfolio company content at scale
Founders who have a story but don't know how to make it cinematic

How the $499 edit works.
What I need from you
Your Footage
Raw files handed over — any format. I'll assess what's usable and let you know if anything is missing before we start.
Your Story
What the video needs to say, who it's for, and the one thing you want viewers to feel or remember.
Reference Feeling
3–5 videos that resonate with you tonally. Not for copying — for calibrating energy, pacing, and style.
My process
Footage Review
I review everything you send and flag any gaps before we begin. No surprises mid-edit.
Structure & Script
I map the narrative arc, on-screen text, and pacing from your brief. You approve the structure before the first cut.
Edit & Grade
Pacing, music, colour grade, sound design, and motion graphics — all in-house. First cut within 5 working days.
2 Revision Rounds
Two rounds of revisions, each addressed in full before the next begins.
Launch-Ready Delivery
Master file + social cutdowns (16:9, 9:16, 1:1). Captioned version included. Ready to publish.
How the $1,299 package works.
What I need from you
Your Story
How the company started, the problem you saw, and what made you build this. Raw is fine — we shape it together.
The Product
What it does, who it's for, and the one thing you want the viewer to feel or remember after watching.
The Company
Stage, team, traction, and any milestones worth anchoring the narrative to (funding, launch, partnership).
Reference Feeling
3–5 videos or films that resonate with you tonally. Not for copying — for calibrating energy and pacing.
My process
Story Discovery
A focused 60-minute call where I pull the narrative thread out of your answers. No deck required. I ask; you talk.
Storyboard & Treatment
I write the visual script — shot sequence, pacing, on-screen text, voiceover cues. You approve before anything is produced.
Production
Shoot day(s), studio, or hybrid with AI-generated sequences where live footage can't go. Tools include Runway, Veo 3, and Kling.
Edit & Grade
Pacing, music, colour grade, sound design, and motion graphics — all in-house. First cut within 5 working days of shoot.
2 Revision Rounds
Two rounds of revisions, each addressed in full before the next begins.
Launch-Ready Delivery
Master file + social cutdowns (16:9, 9:16, 1:1). Captioned version included. Ready to publish.
