If you’re wondering how much it costs to hire a video editor or video production team in the Toronto area, please review our following rates and be sure to reach out if you have any questions.
Our average digital video editing hourly rate is generally $45.00 per hour (plus HST).
If we are exceptionally busy, or if the project has an unusually tight deadline, video editing charges may be as high as $50.00 per hour (plus HST).
Considering we are offering the experience and resources of a video editing specialist, these rates are highly competitive.
We also offer discount rates to non-profit projects, depending on the deadline and our workload at the time.
Video editing and motion graphics flat fees are calculated based on the estimated hours to complete a project by the video editing team and we may request a contingency of 15% to 30% if the requirements to complete the project are not entirely clear.
We also like to refer clients to the Project Management Triangle to help us negotiate the most effective video editing quotes.
For a Data Technician and video editing on-location, our rates are $175 for a half day and $275 for a full day.
If we are required to travel more to provide any of our services, we may charge $50 per hour for travel time.
This will be discussed and negotiated prior to any agreement being made (so you never have to worry about hidden or escalated costs).
Our team’s Writer / Director / Producer also offers packages to write, produce and direct educational and promotional videos:
Our rate for project consultations, writing outlines and scripts is $40 per hour.
The day rate for our team’s DOP (Director of Photography) is $600.00 for 4 hours (half day) and $800.00 for 8 hours (full day).
Overtime for our DOP is $100.00 per hour.
The day rate for our team’s Director and Field Producer is $500.00 for 4 hours (half day) and $800.00 for 8 hours (full day).
Overtime rates are $150.00 per hour.
More complex shoots may require additional crews, such as additional camera operators, a location sound technician, or a camera assistant and their rates are available upon request.
If we are required to travel more than an hour for on-set editing and data transfer, we may charge $50 per hour for travel time.
This will be discussed and negotiated prior to any agreement being made (so you never have to worry about hidden or escalated costs).
Please note: The following rates apply only to customers who are paying a minimum of $40.00 or more.
