What your VA picks up

What your VA picks up.

Here's the work video editors typically hand off. The shape varies by show, we scope what yours owns first on the intro call.

Rough cuts and timeline assembly. Rough cuts built from raw footage, timestamps logged for usable takes, interviews strung out into rough sequences, filler words and dead air cut, the first pass done so your editor starts at L2 not L1.

Short-form clip extraction. Short clips extracted from long-form video, reformatted for 9:16 and 1:1, burned-in captions added, the social cut-downs built so your long episode becomes a week of posts.

Captioning and subtitles. Auto-generated SRT files cleaned up, captions burned in for short-form, chapter timestamps drafted, the accessibility layer done so every video lands ready to publish.

Asset organization and backup. Project assets organized by shoot date, inconsistent file names renamed from camera dumps, footage backed up to cloud and external drives, the project library kept tidy.

Light color and audio cleanup. Light color correction passes, audio cleanup with noise removal, sponsor read inserts and outros pulled, the post-production basics done before your editor opens the project.

Thumbnails and upload prep. Thumbnail option mockups built, video descriptions drafted for YouTube uploads, end-card layouts built, the publish-ready packet delivered with the cut.

FAQ

Common questions about video editing VAs.

Don't see yours? Bring it to the discovery call.

How does my VA learn the tools we use, like Premiere Pro, Final Cut Pro, DaVinci Resolve, CapCut, Descript, or our shared drive?
During onboarding. We help you get your VA set up on your specific editing tools, your project structure, your show's style guide, and your delivery format before they start touching live projects. By the end of the first few weeks they're building rough cuts, extracting clips, and prepping uploads fluently and following the playbook you set.
Will my VA do final cuts, or just rough cuts?
Up to you, and we scope it on the intro call. Most clients start with their VA doing rough cuts and short-form clipping while the lead editor or creator does final cuts and creative direction. Some clients have their VA handle full final cuts for templated content (sponsor reads, social cut-downs, repurposed posts) and reserve the lead editor for the hero pieces.
Can my VA also write thumbnails and titles, or just produce them?
Production first, copy on request. Most clients use their VA to produce thumbnail mockups against approved templates and draft titles from your conventions. The strategic title and thumbnail decisions usually stay with the creator who knows the audience signal.
How do you handle confidentiality, especially around unreleased footage, sponsor deals, and raw interviews?
Your VA can sign a confidentiality agreement before they touch anything sensitive, and they operate inside the access controls you set. You own the security stack, and we help you set it up: dedicated residential proxies and VPNs for tool access, an encrypted password manager like 1Password, and role-based access scoped only to what your VA needs. Credentials are never shared in plain text, and your VA's access is revoked immediately on any transition.
Will my VA be dedicated to my business, or shared with other clients?
Dedicated. Your VA is matched to your business and works your hours on your work. We scope the engagement on the intro call, and your VA isn't being rotated through other clients in the background.
What time zones do your VAs work in?
Our team works around your schedule. We work with clients across North America and Europe, and we match a VA who can cover your business hours. Tell us which hours you need, and we'll scope it on the call and make sure you get coverage. If covering your hours means your VA works a graveyard shift in their time zone there may be additional cost, we'll identify it up front and clearly communicate it before you start working together.
What does onboarding look like?
Onboarding is about setting your VA up for success. We help you organize the access, resources, and direction your VA needs to start strong, pointing them at the SOPs, tools, and playbooks you already use. You own the systems and the playbook for your video work, and we make sure your VA has what they need to follow them. A BlueMoso manager stays in the loop through the first month to run QA and help the working relationship find its rhythm.
What does a virtual assistant cost?
It's a monthly subscription, custom scoped on the discovery call. A managed option is also available if you'd like us to run weekly check-ins, QA the work, own SOPs, and cover when your VA is out. Pay by credit card or bank transfer, collected before service starts and automatically charged at the start of each month after that. Month-to-month, no long contracts, swap anytime.
What if it isn't a good match?
Tell us. We swap VAs at no cost. Most clients who swap early stay with us long-term, and our average engagement runs past 12 months.
