What is an episode-hour?

An episode-hour is one hour of finished episode, however many cameras recorded it. A 60-minute episode uses one episode-hour whether it was filmed on one camera or four. Hours are counted to the second: a 90-minute recording is 1.5.

• Each plan includes a number of episode-hours a month: Creator 5, Pro 12, Studio 40, Agency 120. Unused hours do not carry over to the next month.
• You can add 10 episode-hours for €35 (excluding VAT), never billed automatically. A pack is valid for 12 months and is used after the monthly hours.
• The first episode is free: one episode of up to an hour.

Making an episode holds the length of the recording, and approving the cut returns what the cut removed. Amounts are shown to one decimal: hours left are rounded down, hours needed up. Your balance is on the Episode-hours card of the account page (Creator: Settings, Account & sign-in; Pro: Studiotake account). It reads, for example, “3.2 of 5 hours left this month” and “Resets on … Unused hours don’t carry over.” If you are short, you see “Not enough episode-hours for this recording” with Add hours.
