Toronto Videographer – Rates

Rates are usually based on a half-day (4 to 6-hours) or a full-day shoot (8 to 12-hours). If filming takes multiple days a videographer may offer a discount for the volume of work. Rates also depend on what equipment is needed for the production. Usually a basic shoot requires a video camera, lenses, tripod, lighting kit and mics. So, for the equipment and the videographers labour the average half-day rate is anywhere from $500 to $1,000 + HST.  For a Full-day shoot the average rate is $1,000 to 1,750.00 + HST. Some factors that come into play such the experience level of the videographer and the type of HD video camera being used (DSLR’s that shoot HD video are usually priced in the lower price bracket).  Always look at the video portfolio to make sure the quality is good and it’s always beneficial to meet with the person who is behind the camera before you start any project.
