Molly resorts to editing clips of Suki's training session together to make it look like she's further along in her training than she actually is.

"Fix it in post" is a phrase uttered by filmmakers who screw up a shot but don't want to go through the expensive and time-consuming process of shooting it again.[[note]]Or ''can't'', because the production is out of time or money (or both), or because they only had one copy of a prop that just got destroyed during the previous take, or because local labour laws mean someone involved is at their limit for the day and can't legally do their job any more.[[/note]] The expectation is that the editor will (hopefully) be able to edit around the error, or remove or obscure it, to make it less apparent to the viewer. With current digital image manipulation techniques, this can actually be done for some things you might think ''couldn't possibly'' be fixed in post[[note]]filmmakers can completely erase wires from stunt scenes, digitally de-age actors, swap the face of the on-set stand-in for an animated representation of a long-dead actor - hiding the fact that a performer accidentally looked straight down the lens is trivial by comparison[[/note]], but the amount of work involved can easily end up having an [[EyeTake eye-popping]] cost in money and time.

* ''WesternAnimation/{{Stoked}}'': Finn and Lo try to sabotage Emma by making a fake surfing instruction video where Finn gives bad advice to newbie surfers. During one take, Finn messes up her lines, so Lo says she'll get it in post. It turns out [[RichInDollarsPoorInSense Lo]] has no idea what "in post" is, and only said that because it sounded cool, giving away their ruse to Emma when she watches the video.

* The works of Creator/NeilBreen have a... ''peculiar'' approach to post-production. Mr. Breen is apparently willing to spend quite a lot of time assembling effects sequences (albeit not ''good'' ones) but will also leave what certainly appear to be multiple takes of the same line in a single shot.[[note]]In ''Fateful Findings'', an actress gives the camera an epic "Why me?" AsideGlance in the middle of Neil's repetitive monologue to her, which is left in the final cut for who knows what reason.[[/note]]

* Though the trope isn't actually said, it's obvious ''Series/GarthMarenghisDarkPlace'' was heavily edited in post to make [[StylisticSuck the show]] even make a tiny bit of sense.

* Though the trope isn't actually said, it's obvious ''Series/GarthMarenghisDarkPlace'' was heavily edited in post to make [[StylisticSuck the show]] even make a tiny bit of sense. They do directly refer to a post-production trick at least once, explaining the ludicrous overdose of slow-motion shots; "The episodes were running up to eight minutes under... the only way to stretch them out was with slow motion".[[note]]No, Dean; the way to make up eight minutes is to add a B or C-plot, but your writer was lazy enough to turn in a script that was eight pages short and you were incompetent enough to let him get away with it. [[DontExplainTheJoke Because it's funnier that way.]][[/note]]
