At Orange Photography, we’ve always believed that visual storytelling has the power to strengthen communities, amplify mission-driven work, and support organizations that are creating meaningful impact in the world.

The answer? AI-powered video editing.
In 2024, Orange Photography had the honor of working on several exciting video projects that brought unique events to life through dynamic storytelling. We documented Radicle Growth Venture Capital's Radicle Challenge Summit in San Francisco, focusing on groundbreaking innovations in the corn industry.

With the world moving towards a more virtual, online presence, the capabilities to have an at-home production have come a long way.

So we've decided to put together a guide for beginners that provides an overview of the set-up. Afterwards you'll have a better idea what you need to get started and whether it's better to have a professional help you out.
