Video Production Services

Video production costs can range from $15,000 to millions of dollars per project, depending on the type of video, the level of complexity, and the scale of the creative team behind it. The best way to gain a better understanding of the cost of your project is to speak with us, where we can build your project budget from the ground up. 

These project ranges reflect typical project costs and serve as rough guidelines for budgeting purposes. Every project is unique, and final pricing depends on specific creative requirements, timeline, deliverables, and the complexity of production. Let’s discuss your particular needs so we can provide a detailed proposal.

Smaller-Scale Productions ($15K-$50K)
Projects in this range typically involve streamlined productions with focused deliverables. This includes corporate videos, documentary shoots, and post-production only services, where customers supply pre-existing footage for editing. Compact crew sizes, one to two shooting days, and simple motion graphics requirements are typical characteristics of these productions. The location of a project within this range depends on its scope and specific requirements.

Medium-Scale Productions ($50K-$150K)
These productions involve more comprehensive video creation requirements that can include extended shooting schedules, larger crew sizes for complex shoots, or increased deliverable counts. Projects may incorporate elements such as location fees, talent casting and compensation, expanded creative development phases, wardrobe coordination, production design needs, and more sophisticated motion graphics work. The combination of these various production elements and the scale of deliverables determines the overall project investment within this range.

Large-Scale Productions ($150K-$5 Million+)
Complex productions requiring extensive planning, coordination, and execution over 3-12 month timelines. These projects demand comprehensive pre-production development and involve multiple specialized departments, including camera and lighting teams, casting, production design, wardrobe, props, and location management. Often, these projects merit a dedicated production team for the length of the project. Deliverables can number in the dozens or hundreds, encompassing full commercial campaigns, broadcast-quality documentaries, videos for ad campaigns, branded content series, and similar high-production-value content.

At Bottle Rocket Media, all of our projects have budgets that reflect not only the scope of work but the depth of collaboration, experience, and craftsmanship we bring to the table. Each one is customized to suit your needs, just like your project.
