Video production prices in Birmingham, Alabama and in the areas we serve, are based on several factors, like any other service for hire. As of 2024, the price range for many corporate videos starts around $3,200, but there are variables, lower or higher. For a single videographer price, expect $700 – $1,400 per day and about twice that for a standard video crew. Editing work, called post-production, ranges from $600 – $2,000 per day for business video projects, depending on many factors.
Vulcan Media is a Birmingham, AL based video production company for businesses, and we understand business budgeting — that means we are willing to work with you on price.
Discuss your ballpark budget with us, if you know it. We are often able to suggest ways to fit reasonable budgets (such as using fewer staff members and shortening production time).
We offer affordable, flat-rate prices for video production services, videographers and aerial drone video services. Like most video production companies, we price work based on production days needed (for video recording on-site and for the editing work).
When you’re planning a budget for professional video production work, here are some topics and questions to help you prepare:
How many videos do you need?
How long will each of your finished videos be?
What do you want to show in your video? For example, people speaking on camera, your products or facility, actors or graphical examples like Power Point slides.
Do you need help with the idea or with writing a script?
How much time will you need with the camera crew and where will the shoot take place? Your production company will guide you on this based on the elements you want to show in your video.
Do you need actors, props or special locations provided by the video company?
Will you need a professional narrator?
How about graphics? Do you need simple names on the screen, like you see in TV news…or something more complex like animation?
What is your deadline?
Answer to these questions will affect the production budget. They help us decide how many staff members we’ll assign to work with you, the type of equipment we’ll need to use and the technical skill required to complete your project.
It’s important to remember, the actual video shooting done by the camera crew is only PART of what you’ll pay for in a video production project. Other costs are associated with script-writing, editing, voice-over narration, music license fees and other factors.
