I have been involved with still photography for a number of years now in North
Carolina, and I have a good idea how to price photography jobs, but now I'm
getting involved in corporate video production…Can anyone give me some
general guidelines on pricing video shoots, post-production, and animation (2-D
and #-D)?
In photography I would charge about $100/hr + expenses, however, there would be
very little Post-production work. Would similar pricing apply?
Thanks,

Ed,
Another person left a similar message and I have given him my ideas in
this same message section. I am sure others with more real-world
experience than I have will pipe up too.

I use some pretty high end equipment… Betacam camera and ImMIX videocube
editor. Shooting goes for $850 per day, editing is $100 per hour, digitizing
footage is $55 per hour. These are Washington DC rates, however and like I
said reflect top of the line equipment.
I hope this helps.
