Crafting moments your audience will see, hear, and remember.
Complete post-production—editorial, color, sound, and vfx—all under one roof.
Ababa Studios started with editorial, and it remains our core strength. Our editors guide the entire post-production process, collaborating with color, sound, and VFX teams to turn raw footage into something unforgettable.
Our colorist set the visual tone, enhancing every scene with expert color correction and grading to bring your story to life.
Our sound team shapes the audio landscape, refining dialogue, adding sound effects, and creating original music to fully immerse your audience.
Our VFX team, composed of graphic, motion, and 3D designers, delivers the finishing touches. From clean-ups to dynamic animations, we bring to life what other departments can't.

Find quick answers to common questions about our services and processes.
Which service do you specialize in?
Our specialty is the Studio Plus plan, where we focus on projects with a 2-week lifespan. This timeline is ideal for our team, allowing us to give each project the attention to detail it deserves while avoiding the drag of project fatigue. In this 2-Week Post Sprint, we handle everything from editorial, color, and sound to visual effects, focusing on in-frame graphic animations and cleanups to ensure a polished, timely delivery.
Can we work together on a monthly basis?
Yes, we offer flexible monthly retainer options, ideal for ongoing projects like series or recurring content.
Why don't you offer VFX as a one-time service?
We offer one-off services for editing, color, and sound. However, VFX requires more complexity, so we include it only in full-service packages to ensure consistency and quality.
Do you provide in person sessions?
We don’t offer in-person edit sessions, but we do provide remote editing sessions with real-time collaboration, available for an extra fee. Remote color sessions are coming soon.
