If My Video is Shorter will it Cost Less?
This is unfortunately a common question that is based on a false assumption which is; the shorter the video, the faster it is to create and requires less effort.
This logic is simply untrue and quite fallible because, as we’re sure you could imagine, a 30 second commercial with stunts, costumes, special effects, etc might be quite short in length but big in cost compared to a 2 hour recording and edit of a business conference.
In fact, many of the most expensive productions we have done are also some of the shortest.
The reason for this is that shorter work is often designed to wow an audience and draw them in to taking further action (calling, visiting a website, etc). Therefore, a production is needed that has the ‘it’ factor. Elements that provide a project with this are typically dearer than standard components of a project.
Final cost also depends on the complexity of the overall edit. Sometimes, post production on a three day event can cost less than a music video. This is due to the music video typically needing more advanced colour grading, visual effects and other time heavy processes whereas the three day event video is a typically a comparatively simple edit showcasing the presenter and guest speakers.
