Why a hero video costs more than a shoot day plus an edit
A recap captures what happened. A hero video is planned, lit and edited to tell your story. Most of the extra cost is work you don't see on the day.

Before you ask
Video production pricing FAQ
How much does video production cost?
Most of our projects start at $2,500. A production day starts at $1,500, an event highlight edit at $1,000, a hero video at $4,500 and a brand film at $10,000.
Why does a hero video cost more than a production day and an edit?
A production day and a highlight edit capture and recap something that is already happening. A hero video is built from scratch. Most of the extra cost is work you don't see on the day: involved pre-production, planning and coordinating with everyone involved to line up the shoot, and a more involved edit built around the interview. Depending on the shoot, it can also mean multiple cameras on the interview and an assistant on set.
Do you have a half-day rate?
Not for shooting. A production day is the smallest unit we book. The one exception is travel. Outside our local area, travel days are billed at half the production day rate, plus expenses.
Are these prices fixed?
These are starting prices. Your quote is one fixed price with everything it includes spelled out, so you know the total before you commit.
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is one of the four things that move the price, and it's included in your fixed quote. We cover most of the Northeast locally, from DC up to New York and Connecticut, and from eastern Pennsylvania to the Jersey Shore. Outside our local area, travel days are billed at half the production day rate, plus expenses. We also travel nationwide.
Do you work with enterprise budgets and procurement?
Yes. Enterprise projects are quoted individually. We produce for brands like Google, Sony and Informa Connect.
