The million dollar question in our business is always "how much does a video cost?" – the answer is… “it really depends. Video production can be particularly difficult to price, with quotes often varying wildly; "Why?!" we hear you cry… Here's a helpful overview with some practical tips to help you better understand what drives production costs, how to select the right investment for your content, and how to get the most out of the budget.
