Ok, I'm willing to take any abuse I get for asking this question.
(I've read past posts in this regard.) But I press on:
We have been asked to produce two 30 minute videos for a large
company. We have worked with them in the past. We did a 10 minute
video (was supposed to be 5-7 minutes) for well under 5 figures. They
are fine folks to work with.
Here are the main points:
1. One video will be a demonstration of a new product. The other will
be a tutorial on its use.
2. They will provide script. They prepared the script last time and
did a good job, though project went long.
3. Shooting will be in one room.
4. There will be two actors in each video. (Though not the same
people, as I understand it.
5. We will provide director, 1 cameraman with lights and other support
eqwuipment, editor and production assistant. I will do some assistant
editing and production management/misc. wrangling.
6. Provide about 10 DVDs
7. There will have to be a bit of video razzle-dazzle to this or it
will be dry as dust.
8. Two days of "practice"/rehearsal. One day of shooting.
9. Delivery in about 30 days after shoot.
10. I have minimal overhead to support at this point.
I know the old cliche' saws about industrial project cost. (ie. $1k
and minute and up) However, if the cost for help mentioned above is
porportional to costs in the original project, I can't see charging
anything approaching $1k per minute.
Your comments?
