In the Press & Publishing sector, professional video content has become essential for standing out in a competitive market. Whether you need promotional material, training content, or brand storytelling, Video Restoration delivers measurable results that transform how press & publishing professionals communicate with their audience.
The press and publishing industry is undergoing a profound digital transformation where video has become essential for survival. Newspapers and media outlets need video to compete with social-first platforms — turning print stories into visual reports, animating data journalism, and producing video-first breaking news content. Behind-the-scenes footage of newsrooms in action, printing presses rolling, and editorial meetings adds transparency that builds subscriber loyalty. These videos distribute across websites, social accounts, YouTube news channels, and digital subscription marketing funnels targeting readers willing to pay for quality journalism.
Print and digital publishers face a fundamental transformation: audiences consume 78% of news and editorial content through video. The shift from text-first to multimedia newsrooms requires new skills, workflows, and production capabilities — while maintaining editorial quality and journalistic standards.
Publishing houses must create author interviews, book trailers, and editorial video content to compete for attention. The economics are challenging: video production costs more than text but generates significantly more engagement and advertising revenue.
A regional newspaper launched a daily video news segment alongside their print edition. Digital subscriptions grew 156%, advertising revenue from digital video exceeded print ad revenue within 18 months, and the newsroom won two digital journalism awards.
A publishing house created an author interview and reading series for their catalog. Book sales increased 89% for featured titles, and the series built a subscriber community of 45K loyal readers.
Publishing video drives sustainable transformation: video news content generates 6x more social shares, author interview videos increase book sales by 89%, and video-first editorial strategies drive 3x more social sharing and 4x higher advertising CPMs. Publishers with strong video content see 65% higher digital subscription conversion rates.
1. Color Analysis: We review all footage, identify exposure/white balance issues, and establish the target look with mood references and LUT exploration.
2. Primary Correction: Exposure normalization, white balance correction, and overall color balance across all shots for consistency.
3. Creative Grade: Scene-by-scene color grading to achieve the desired mood, with custom power windows, secondary corrections, and film emulation.
4. Final QC: Broadcast compliance check (if needed), HDR/SDR delivery, and export of custom LUTs for future use.
Video restoration recovers degraded footage from VHS tapes, film scans, miniDV cassettes, and early digital formats — removing scratches, flicker, color fading, dropout lines, and interlacing artifacts. We use a multi-stage pipeline: first deinterlace and deflicker, then stabilize, then denoise, then restore color balance using reference frames or period-accurate color science. This service preserves institutional archives, family memories, and historical footage for modern use. Processing is slow due to the care required — expect 3-7 business days for 30 minutes of material. We deliver restored footage alongside the untouched original for archival comparison.
You receive: color-graded master in ProRes/DPX, custom LUT package, before/after comparison frames, HDR and SDR versions, and color-consistent stills for marketing.
