How to price a video job the right way

01

Start from your costs

Gear, software, insurance and your own pay come first. A price that doesn't cover them is a loss, even if the client says yes.

02

Shoot by the day, edit by the hour

A shoot day carries gear, travel and a full day of your life. Price it that way, then bill editing hours on top.

03

Check the market before you send

If you're far under typical, you're covering part of the client's budget out of your own pocket.
