Same-day event video editing in London
We Stream is a London video and photo production company (We Stream Ltd, founded in 2022 by Violetta Coretnic and Vitalii Vakulchuk) that films events and edits them on the day: a finished highlight film while your guests are still in the room, or a cut on your phone by the next morning.
Same-day is planned, not promised on the day. An editor sits with the crew, music and brand files are cleared before we arrive, and the structure of the film is agreed in advance. A same-day recap of up to 60 seconds costs £400 on top of the filming; an on-site editor cutting several pieces is £1,200 a day.

What you can have the same day
Speed is added to an ordinary event booking, not sold as a separate shoot. Pick the filming, then the speed. One recap, cut off site from footage sent during the day, is £400. Several same-day pieces, or anything cut at the venue, is the on-site editor.
VAT will be added where applicable. Standard delivery is 7 working days with two rounds of revisions. Full rates are on our event video prices page and the prices hub.
Example: Connected Britain 2025, ExCeL London
Edit to screen, before the doors close
Connected Britain wanted a film attendees could share before they left the building. We put an editor on site at ExCeL with the camera crew and cut the day as it happened.
- 09:00Filming startsThe operator films the floor and walks the cards to the editor every 40 to 60 minutes, instead of uploading and waiting.
- 13:00First cutThe structure was agreed before the day, so the editor builds the film as the footage arrives and leaves gaps for what has not happened yet.
- LaterThe last session goes inThe final moments are filmed, dropped into the prepared slot, graded and rendered.

Real jobs, real timestamps
Every time below is from the job itself, not an estimate. Vertical cuts for social go first; the longer film follows.
Evening events
Overnight is the evening same-day
When a show or launch ends at 22:00 or 23:00, the edit runs through the night and the film is with you before the working day starts, while the guests are still posting about the night before.
These three were cut that way: a runway, a collection launch and a trade show raffle.

What makes it possible
Five things settled before the day
A same-day film rarely fails in the edit. It fails because the logo file, the music or the decision about formats arrives at 6pm. All of that is fixed in advance.
Music cleared
The track is chosen, licensed and in the project folder before the crew travels, not browsed for during a three-hour edit.
Brand files
Production-ready logo, fonts, colours, speaker names and end-card copy go to the editor in advance.
Structure agreed
Which moments the film builds towards and roughly how long each beat runs. The editor starts with a skeleton, not a blank timeline.
Formats fixed
Horizontal, vertical or both, resolution and length. A late request for a vertical version adds 30 to 60 minutes.
Cards moving
Footage goes to the editor in batches through the day and is backed up to two drives before a card is cleared.
Worth it when
- Press are in the room and need material today
- Guests and speakers will share it on LinkedIn the same evening
- There is a day two, and day one's film can promote it
- A launch has a date and the news is that day
Not worth it when
- The film is for the website or internal comms next month
- It needs several rounds of approval from people who are not at the event
- It is long-form: interviews and the final film are not same-day
- The brief is still changing on the day
Photos delivered on the day
Same-day photos, in batches
At Fast Growth Icons London 2025 edited photos went to guests while the conference was still running. Photos are selected and edited between moments, so the last batch is twenty minutes of work, not the start of it. More on our event photography page.
FAQ
Same-day editing: questions
How much does a same-day event video cost in London?
We Stream adds a same-day recap of up to 60 seconds to an event booking for £400, cut off site from footage sent during the day. An on-site editor cutting a recap, three vertical clips and 40 to 60 photos is £1,200 a show day. Filming starts from £1,400 for a half day with a highlight film.
How fast can you deliver an event video?
Our fastest documented times: a full event video from the Thames Freeport launch at The Savoy within five hours, and a first cut of Connected Britain at ExCeL by 13:00 after filming started at 9:00. Evening events are usually cut overnight and with you by the next morning.
Do you bring an editor to the event?
Yes, for same-day work. The editor sits on site with the crew, receives footage in batches through the day and builds the film as the event happens. Social pack S with one editor is £1,200 a show day; pack L with two editors is £1,900.
What is an overnight edit?
For evening events we edit through the night and deliver by the morning, from £900 extra. At the John Richmond show the runway finished at 23:00, the edit was done by 05:00 and the film was on the client's page by 09:00.
Can you deliver photos during the event?
Yes. A selection of 10 to 15 edited images is +£150, and the full gallery, with edited photos arriving in batches through the event, is +£400. At Trafalgar Square press photos were ready within 20 minutes of the unveiling ending.
What has to be ready before the event?
Cleared music, production-ready logo and brand files, speaker names, the rough structure of the film and the formats you need. When those are settled in advance, the only work left on the day is the edit itself.
Is everything delivered the same day?
No. Same-day work is the short highlight film, vertical clips and photos. Interviews, longer films and the final film for your website go into the edit after the event and arrive inside 7 working days, or within 48 hours as a rush for £400.
Do you do same-day editing outside London?
Yes. At SBC Summit Lisbon 2026 our on-site editor cut a Meet the Team film the same evening and a raffle reel overnight. Travel outside London is calculated by us and included in your quote. VAT will be added where applicable.
