Comparisons are odious, or are they? Now that professional video is an necessary part of online marketing you owe it to your business to get the best deal. However there is more to making a purchase of a product or service than price. Quality is an essential factor.
So you will want to know, exactly what does a professional film-maker charge, and why? What are the hidden costs? Rather than bore you let us sum them up: business costs such as marketing and accountancy, insurance, and staff including training (constant updating required). Equipment is much more than a couple of cameras and Apple Macs. Although capital costs of broadcast quality technology have reduced over recent years, the plethora of software can be costly because the public expects TV & broadcast standards with the full Monty of effects.
Those who don't like to ask for a price might go to something well publicised like Yell.com's services. They will see that the most commonly required 30/60 second web video is priced from £950 each. You might like to compare this with our Package No 1 on the packages page on this site. When it comes to a full corporate with Yell for £3750, with the addition of a professional narrator and a few bells and whistles, our Package No 3 would still just fall short of £2000.
What's the catch? Why the discrepancy? Purely branding is one answer. For the other answer you would need to ring us on 0845 257 2154. We would value your comments.
