How our pricing works
Because of all the factors that affect the price of a video, it can be hard for clients to get an understanding of how much their video is going to cost without a sales meeting. For example, most people don’t know how many days their video will take to film or maybe they don’t know what to expect with post-production hours. That’s why most media production companies just give up on the idea, but not us.

How to estimate your video’s shoot days
The number of shoot days your video will need will depend on a wide range of factors. As we mentioned, more complex videos will ultimately need more shoot days.
However, you can get a pretty good idea of the number of shoot days if you know these four things:
- number of videos needed
- number of different locations for video shoot
- length of video(s)
- type of video(s)
We do our best to be as efficient as possible when filming your video so that we can help limit the number of shoot days.

Explainer Videos
~ .5-1 shoot days
Branded Videos
~ 1-4+ shoot days

How to estimate your video’s post-production hours
After filming the video, there’s still work to be done to make it look great. For most of the videos we make, we spend at least 10 hours editing & completing your video, which costs around $1000.
During post-production, our team edits the footage, adds cool effects, and puts everything together to make your video great.
For more complex videos such as advertisements or branded content, the post-production time may extend to 20-40+ hours due to the nature of the video.
