Monthly Video Editing Plans: How Ongoing Editing Works

A monthly video editing plan gives you Mark on every video, a set number of videos per week or per month, and a style sheet that keeps every upload consistent. You send footage on a schedule, your queue is worked in-house, and delivery lands on a fixed cadence. Plans are scoped to your volume and quoted upfront, never billed by the hour.

How it works

What you get on a monthly plan

Consistent every month

Your style, brand and recurring assets are kept on file in a style sheet, with a direct line to Mark.

A fixed cadence

Weekly or bi-weekly batches are the usual rhythm. Weekly clients get a reserved weekly slot, so delivery times stay consistent.

A style sheet

Your pacing, captions, color, music, lower-thirds and intro written down once as a brand profile, so no video needs re-briefing.

Priority on Scale

The Scale plan includes a priority queue, so your videos are scheduled ahead of one-off work.

Rush on Scale

On the Scale plan, rush turnaround is built into capacity rather than depending on who is free that week. On other plans it depends on team availability.

Simple billing

Billed monthly in advance, Net-15 terms for established clients, and a fixed quote in writing before the first month.

Cadence

Unlimited plans

What "unlimited" usually means elsewhere

"Unlimited video editing" is almost never unlimited output. The word describes how many requests you can submit, not how many videos come back. Before you sign any plan, ours included, check which of these caps applies:

  • One active request at a time. You can queue as many videos as you like, but only one is being edited; the next starts when you approve the last. Output is capped by the round trip, not the queue.
  • A daily hours allotment. Plans sold as a number of editor hours per day, so "unlimited" means whatever fits in those hours.
  • Length and complexity limits. A ceiling on raw footage or finished runtime per video, with motion graphics or long-form charged extra.
  • Revisions in the same queue. A revision counts as a request and waits its turn, which slows everything behind it.

Questions worth asking: how many finished videos did a typical client get last month? Do I keep the same editor? What happens to my queue during a revision round? Our breakdown of unlimited subscriptions vs per-video pricing has the math, and our video editing statistics cover what editing costs across the market.

Our own Unlimited plan ($3,500 a month) says which cap applies: one request in progress at a time, with the first draft of each within 3 business days. The other monthly plans are scoped to a stated number of deliverables, so you know what comes back each month before you pay. If an unlimited plan still suits you, our list of the best unlimited video editing services compares what each one caps.

Getting started

How to start a monthly plan

  1. Get an instant quote with your volume. For example: "two long-form videos and ten Shorts a month." We confirm the timeline within one business day.
  2. Send the first video's footage and 2–3 references. See how to send a reference, or use the free brief template.
  3. Set the style. The first cut lands within 5–7 business days of your files arriving. Your revision notes become the style sheet. Most clients land on a consistent style within 2–3 videos.
  4. Run the cadence. Send footage on your schedule; Mark delivers against the same style sheet, every week.

“I've been working with Mark on my YouTube videos over the past several months and he's literally helped me stay so consistent with my content. He's responsive to feedback, he's easy to communicate with, and has made the editing process so much more manageable so I can focus on creating valuable content for my audience.”

FAQ

Monthly video editing: frequently asked questions

There are four plans, all month to month: Starter at $750 a month (one long-form edit with up to 15 minutes of footage, 4 Shorts, 2 thumbnails), Growth at $2,000 (4 YouTube videos with thumbnails, titles and SEO, plus 8 Shorts), Scale at $2,700 (4 long-form edits, 24 Shorts, 8 thumbnails and a monthly content plan) and Unlimited at $3,500 (unlimited edit requests, one in progress at a time). Every inclusion is listed on markstudios.com/pricing.

A monthly plan is ongoing editing scoped to a set number of videos per week or month. You get a style sheet for your channel and a direct line to Mark, and the Scale plan adds a priority queue. You send footage on your schedule and delivery lands on a fixed cadence, without re-briefing every video.

Yes. Monthly clients get a style sheet that keeps your style, brand and recurring assets on file, and a direct line to Mark. One-off projects build the same file, so your second project with us already feels more yours than your first.

As many as your plan is scoped for. Each monthly plan covers a stated number of deliverables, for example one long-form video a week plus the Shorts cut from it. Tell us your cadence in the instant quote and we scope the volume, footage length and turnaround before you commit.

Yes. Unlimited is $3,500 a month: unlimited edit requests, one in progress at a time, long-form edits (up to 15 minutes of footage each) or Shorts, a thumbnail with every long-form video, and the first draft of each request within 3 business days. The other plans are scoped to a stated volume, so you know what comes back each month. If you want unlimited revision rounds for a flat fee, we're not the right fit, and we'd rather say so before you start.

Yes. Many creators run long-form plus Shorts from the same footage, and we structure the workflow so one shoot powers both at once: the long video is edited first, then the best moments become Shorts, Reels and TikToks for the rest of the week.

Monthly plans are billed monthly in advance, and established clients can move to Net-15 terms. We accept Stripe, credit card, ACH, wire and PayPal; card data never touches our servers. You get the scope and a fixed quote in writing before the first month starts, never an hourly bill.

You get a quote and timeline within one business day of scoping. The clock on the first video starts when your files land: the first cut lands within 5–7 business days.
