How much does a video cost?
There are a considerable number of variables involved with production costs. For some projects such as commercials we offer production packages with the details and costs already designed.
Custom video presentations are a little more complicated. A lot of variables must be considered before a fair production budget can be created. See below for a typical list of variables. A rough rule of thumb for custom productions would be between $1000 to $3000 per finished minute, depending on variables. Most importantly our consultation and our budgeting proposal is free. It won’t cost you anything to find out how much it costs to do a video.

What are the steps to making a custom video?
Plan - Planning meetings determine budget, scope, audience and objective of the video.
Script Writing - Based on the objectives and the company’s materials and ideas we come up with your video script.
Pre-Production - This is where we lay the foundation with a production plan. We scout locations, set up a shooting schedule, plan interviews, book talent, and choose post production elements.
Production - During this step our experienced crew captures video and audio for the final product.
Post-Production - The video and audio elements are brought into our digital editing studio where our professional editors put the finishing touches on with graphics, narration, titles, effects, and even animation.
Distribution - On your approval of the program, we author a DVD master, creating menus, chapters, buttons and transitions. DVD’s are then duplicated or delivered to agencies depending on your needs.
