Done For You

Send the Veo.
Get the reel.

A scout-ready showreel from your child's match — tracking, slow-mo, music, the lot — made by the football dad who built the editor. Back in your inbox fast — usually inside 48 hours.

From £79. One round of revisions included.

A real 38-second reel. One Veo match in. Scout-ready out.

The reels you keep meaning to make.

Another Veo download is sitting in my Downloads folder.

You meant to do something with last Sunday’s match. And the one before. And the JPL game from a fortnight ago where they played their best half of the season. The folder is full. The reels aren’t made.

Every hour I spend in DaVinci is an hour I’m not coaching, working, or watching them play.

The parents getting reels in front of scouts are not the parents with more time. They are the parents who stopped trying to do it themselves.

I tried last time and lost the whole thing to a paywall.

Hours into CapCut. The finished reel on the screen. Export blocked. Subscribe to continue. That story is not unusual — it is the standard outcome.

They play U14 next season. I keep meaning to make a reel for the academy contact, and it never happens.

U14 to U16 is the window. The next twelve months are when the scholarship conversations start. Another season of unedited matches is another season of footage a scout never saw.

How it works.

  1. 1

    Pick a tier

    Single Reel, Match Showcase, or Compilation Reel. Each one is a fixed price for a fixed scope. Optional Rush add-on listed clearly on the order form — no surprise fees.

  2. 2

    Send three things

    A download link to the match footage — a public Veo link, or your own Drive / Dropbox / WeTransfer link if it is anywhere else. The timestamps of the moments you want featured. Which player is yours — kit number, colour, position. About four minutes of writing.

  3. 3

    Get the reel — usually inside 48 hours

    A finished mp4 with the player tracked, the skill moments slowed down, music if your tier includes it, ready for WhatsApp, email, or a scout’s inbox. One round of revisions included.

What you actually get.

The reel actually gets made this week

Not next month. Not “when I get a free Saturday.” Order tonight, the reel is in your inbox inside 48 hours — sooner with Rush. The season your child is in right now is the season the reel goes out for.

ProofA standard single-source reel takes about 20 minutes of work end-to-end. 48-hour turnaround is the standard delivery promise — Rush 24h is +£39 if you need it sooner.

Marquee

Made by someone who knows what a scout watches

The reels are produced by a JPL parent (Cassiobury Rangers) and an APDC parent (Watford’s Advanced Player Development Programme). Two boys in the pathway, neither in an academy yet — exactly where most football kids are. The editor was built because it was needed for those boys’ own reels. Yours is made by someone who has watched scouts skip the ones that did not land in 30 seconds.

ProofEvery reel uses the same workflow — bookmark, cut, track, slow-mo, music — that the founder uses on his own boys’ matches.

The hardest part of editing — solved, without you needing to learn it

Tracking a moving player is the single most painful thing in DaVinci. It is the thing the editor was built to make easy and the thing the founder does for you. The outline follows your child across the pitch in the finished reel. The wide-angle dot turns into a child a scout can actually see.

ProofPlayer tracking is included in every tier — even the £79 Single Reel. It is not held back as a premium upsell.

Who makes the reel. And why that matters.

The reel is made by the football dad who built ReelMagic. Parent of two boys at Cassiobury Rangers (JPL) and Watford's Advanced Player Development Programme. Neither in an academy yet — exactly where most football kids are, training and playing at a serious level with the next steps still to earn.

Every feature in the editor exists because it was needed for a real reel a real scout watched. The Done For You service is the same workflow, run for you, by the person who designed it. One workflow. One person. One inbox.

A parent shouldn't have to become a videographer to advocate for their child.

Order Compilation Reel

Why this is what it costs.

A Fiverr editor will do a sports reel for £40, and the reel will look like a sports reel for £40 — generic music laid over the wrong moments, the wide angle never cropped, no tracking. A specialist agency will charge £200–£400 and take a week. This sits between the two, deliberately: made by the person who built the editor and knows the pathway. The price reflects that, and not more.

Honest answers.

My match isn’t on Veo, or my Veo is behind a club login. Can you still make a reel?

Yes. Footage can come from anywhere — Veo, an iPhone on the sideline, a friend’s camcorder, a DVD rip. The only constraint is that we need to be able to download it. If your Veo share link is public (most are), paste it into the order email. If it sits behind a club login, or your footage is anywhere else, drop the mp4 into your own Google Drive, Dropbox, or WeTransfer and send the share link instead. We do not accept direct file uploads — every order is link-based.

What if you do not pick the moments I would have picked?

You pick the moments. The order email asks for timestamps — “3:42 — through ball, 27:10 — tackle that won the corner.” We work from your list, not our judgement. If the first cut misses what you wanted, the included round of revisions sorts it.

What about footage I filmed on my phone, not Veo?

Phone footage is fine — most parents have a mix. Use a Compilation Reel if you want to combine phone clips with the Veo match. Single Reel and Match Showcase are designed around one source per order to keep the price honest.

What music can I use — and what about copyright?

You supply the audio file as a link (your own Google Drive, Dropbox, or similar). You are responsible for having the rights to use the track. We do not check or vet copyright on supplied music, and we are not responsible for any rights issues that follow from using it on a reel that gets shared. If you have not got a track in mind, the routes most parents use are royalty-free libraries (the YouTube Audio Library, Pixabay Music) or AI music tools that grant a personal-use licence. The £79 Single Reel is no-music by design — short scout clips often land harder without one.

What happens to my footage after the reel is delivered?

The source video is deleted from the founder’s machine within 14 days of delivery. The finished mp4 is kept for 90 days in case you want a re-download, then that goes too. Footage is never used in marketing without explicit written permission, and we will never ask.

What if I am not happy with the first cut?

One round of revisions is included with every order — change the moments, swap the music, change the intro card, retime the slow-mo. We would rather you get the reel you wanted than save the half-hour. If a second round is needed, it is £25. That has only happened once.

Why pay for this when I could buy the editor and do it myself?

You should, if you have an evening free and you want to learn the app. The app exists, it works, and most Done For You customers end up using it themselves eventually. This service exists for the matches you do not have the evening for, the reels you needed yesterday, and the parents who have already tried and would rather not try again.

I have a scout meeting on Tuesday. Can you actually hit a deadline?

Standard turnaround is 48 hours for Single + Showcase, 72 for Compilation. If you genuinely need it faster, add Rush (+£39) and it's back in 24.

One reel. One price. Back in 48 hours — Compilation in 72.

The match sitting in your Downloads folder can be a scout-ready reel back inside 48 hours — or by tomorrow if you add Rush. The footage link, the timestamps, the kit number. Four minutes of writing.

Refund policy

Refund policy. Full refund any time before the founder starts work on your reel — typically within the first 12 hours of your order, and always before you send the footage link if you have not already supplied it. No refund once delivery has begun. If you have not heard back within 24 hours of ordering, email the founder and a full refund will be issued without question.
