What a Video Project Costs,
Explained Honestly

Filming days start at $1,200 for an ENG package, $1,500 for the interview package, and editing starts at $700. Every project is quoted individually with a transparent, itemized estimate, so you know exactly where your budget is going before anything is signed. No padded flat rates, no surprise line items at delivery. Build a ballpark below, or here's how the number comes together.

Every quote comes down to five lines — tap to see them

1 Shoot days

The biggest driver. A half-day interview, a full event day, and a multi-day documentary are scoped differently, and the estimate says exactly how many days you're paying for.

2

Crew

Many projects are just me as a solo owner‑operator, which keeps things lean. Bigger productions add trusted gaffers, audio techs, and second camera operators, each listed individually.

3

Gear

My full kit comes with me, scaled to the job. You only pay for the package your production actually needs, not a rental house's wishlist.

4

Travel

Boston-area work travels free. New England, New York, and beyond get an honest travel line you can see and question before signing.

5

Post-production

Editing, color grading, motion graphics, and audio mixing are quoted by the project, and every edit includes one free round of revisions. Prefer raw footage handed off to your team? That's an option too, and the estimate gets smaller.

Tick what you need and the number moves with you. It's a ballpark to start the conversation, not a contract.
