HOW TO USE THIS PAGE
Choose the scope, not just the lowest number
The cheapest video is not always the best value. A well-planned production can often create a main video, short social edits, interview clips, internal versions and still images from the same shoot. Planning the deliverables before filming usually gives better value than trying to create extra content later.
For a tighter quote, tell us the audience, filming location, interview numbers, required video length, deadline and where the content will be used.

Video production pricing FAQs
Why do video production costs vary so much?
Costs vary because every project has different filming time, crew requirements, equipment, locations, scripting, editing, graphics, captions, music, drone needs, travel and approval requirements.
Can you provide a fixed quote?
Yes. Once we understand the scope and deliverables, we prepare a fixed project quote so you know what is included before production begins.
Are the prices on this page inclusive of GST?
No. Unless otherwise stated, pricing on this page is shown excluding GST.
Can one filming day create multiple videos?
Yes. With planning, one filming day can often produce a main video, social media cut-downs, interview clips, internal communications edits and supporting photography.
Do you charge separately for raw footage?
Raw footage can be supplied when requested. Additional costs may apply for file preparation, upload, hard drive delivery or conversion to MP4, depending on the amount of footage and preferred delivery method.
