How much?


I need something videotaped.

We offer an extremely competitive rate of just $100 per hour for a full standard definition camera, lighting and wireless audio package with a 2 hour minimum.

How about editing?

Online post production services include audio sweetening, custom music bed production and all the production value you need to make your project stand out. Again, the cost is $100/hour, with a 1 hour minimum for projects carried out at our studios, and a 4 hour minimum for on-location editing.

How much does a commercial cost?

A simple enough question, but the answer can be complicated. You wouldn't walk into a car showroom and ask, "How much does a car cost?" Well, you might, but you aren't going to get an answer until you provide some more details. Do you want top of the line? Leather seats? Are you just looking for something dependable and affordable? Answer those questions and you're more likely to get an answer.

No, really. How much is it going to cost me?

Okay. You need a price range to help you make the decision to go forward with creating your commercial. We understand. That's why we created our :30 Commercial Package. Its a great way to get a complete commercial advertising production with a set budget.


The :30 Commercial Package

  • Up to 2 hours location shooting (standard definition)
  • Up to 6 hours editing (your place or ours)
  • Professional voiceover
  • Custom music bed
  • 1 digital copy (for you)
  • 1 digital delivery (one station or cable outlet)
  • ONLINE reviews throughout the process

COST: $750

Its the whole enchilada for one low price. We'll work together to write a script based on your needs. We'll capture high quality digital images on-location, and then we'll put it all together with voice, music, graphics and your logo to create an honest to goodness television commercial. Thanks to our experience and the latest technology, you'll get a commercial that looks like you spent a bundle. We're experts at making you look great without breaking the bank.

What about corporate videos?

It's considerably harder to put together a package price for corporate video work, but a good ballpark figure is about $500 to $2000 per finished minute, depending on the complexity of the production. That's just a ballpark figure, so be sure and contact us with the details of your project. We'll be happy to put together a quote based on your specific needs.

What about talent, high definition, film, cranes, 3d animation, jingles, etc...

Now you're talking...talking about what we refer to as additional costs. That's a nice way of saying that any products or services not provided directly by Video Made Simple will be over and above the prices listed above. That includes on-camera talent, equipment rental and freelance labor. We will provide you with a written estimate for any additional costs before production starts, so there will never be any surprises. As always, we'll do our best to ensure that you get the best value for your money.
