Five levers that determine the final quote.
Scope & shoot duration
Half-day, full-day, or multi-day. More shoot days, more cost.
Crew size & specialisation
Solo op vs. full crew with DP, sound, gaffer, PA — each adds to the day rate.
Location & travel
London shoots are simpler. Out-of-city work adds travel time and mileage at cost. Full travel days: 50% of day rate.
Post-production complexity
Basic edit vs. colour grade + VFX + motion graphics + sound design. Each layer costs time.
Turnaround
Standard lead time is 2–4 weeks. Rush delivery is possible — at a premium.
Video production costs depend on scope, crew size, shoot days, and post-production complexity. A typical corporate video starts from around £1,500 for a single-day shoot with editing, while larger brand films or multi-day productions range from £5,000 to £20,000+. Corporate video production specifically typically sits between £3,000 and £15,000. We provide detailed, itemised quotes within 24 hours — <a href="/contact">contact us</a> with your brief for an accurate estimate.
We believe in complete transparency. Beyond core rates (videographer days and post-production), travel expenses include mileage, accommodation, and travel time, all charged at cost with no markup. If a full day of travel is required to reach your location, we charge 50% of our standard day rate for travel days. For projects requiring specialised equipment beyond our in-house gear (cinema cameras, specialist rigs, multi-camera concert coverage), we hire rental kit — again charged at cost with no additional markup. Every potential cost is discussed upfront during the quote process.
Yes. For larger projects, we typically work with a milestone-based structure: 30–40% deposit upon project approval to secure dates and begin pre-production, 30–40% upon completion of filming, and the balance upon final delivery. For ongoing content needs or multi-video campaigns, we can arrange monthly retainer agreements. All payment terms are clearly outlined in our proposals.
Our packages include end-to-end services: pre-production planning (concept development, scriptwriting, storyboarding, location scouting), professional filming with cinema-grade equipment, experienced crew (director, cinematographer, sound engineer), and complete post-production (editing, colour grading, sound design, music licensing, motion graphics, VFX). We deliver in multiple formats optimised for different platforms. Each package is customised to your needs and includes revision rounds. See our <a href="/pricing">pricing page</a> for package details.
Yes, rush delivery is available at a premium rate. For events or campaigns with hard deadlines, we can mobilise same-day filming and deliver edited content within 24–48 hours. Contact us to discuss your timeline.
