Several factors influence the price, including the number of shooting days, the complexity of the set and the number of crew members needed to complete your project. In general, a shoot starts at between $2,000 and $3,000 for a project including a day’s shooting, a director, a director of photography and an editor, for a result that lives up to your ambitions.
In our opinion, video production should be at the heart of any good marketing strategy. There is objectively no superior communication medium for reaching your customers. We certainly believe in the importance of photography, copywriting and even pure audio (and even cover their services better than anyone else), but why not give video the central place it deserves?
Like you, we’re entrepreneurs looking to increase our visibility on social networks. So we’re very familiar with the issue and have developed a package (based on our own strategy) to produce 1 month’s worth of content for you in a single day. For an 8h in your month, we can cover all your programming the following month.
With us, there’s ZERO ambiguity about the future of your data. To guarantee availability (with rare exceptions), we offer you an annual storage space rental, included in the quote. This way, whether your files are in basic HD resolution or 4k Raw, they’re safe in our studios and backed up in duplicate. Whether you want to take back your old shots for re-use yourself, or trust us again for another assignment, they’ll be waiting for you, safe and sound.
We offer these complementary services, and we even count on the experts to deliver the best results. Our photographers have experience working on sets with groups from 10 to 50, and our drone pilots are fully certified with Transport Canada and can fly underwater as well as lift the most advanced filming equipment.
If you haven’t already had a chance to see for yourself with our Guide to a Videographer’s Secrets, we’re well aware of the ideal formats for different platforms, and it’s our duty to provide you with these in a turnkey package. Our podcast is an excellent example of our strategy – quality content that serves hundreds of listeners every week.
A minimum. You’re in your business and you’ve got to run it. Making your next video shouldn’t interfere with your operations. That’s why our unique production process takes care of all your needs, from creation to broadcast, filming and editing. With the exception of a few 30-minute meetings, we’ll leave you alone while we get to work.
To date, we’ve toured the four corners of Quebec from Rivière-du-Loup to Montreal, via Quebec City, for customers on both sides of the Atlantic. With local partners available all over the world, there’s no limit to where we can travel. Get our air miles up, we’re ready to go!
Thanks to our experience in various productions and our close collaboration with the UDA (Union des artistes), we are able to select the best actors to represent your brand. Through a rigorous casting process, from the initial call to the final contract.
Certain factors may influence availability, such as the agreement with the UDA, which must take into account the number of years of broadcast or be renewed, but, as a general rule, the final video as delivered is yours as long as you use it within the parameters of our agreement together.
We do our utmost to prevent rather than cure by estimating project costs as accurately as possible, but cost overruns can occur. But this shouldn’t cause stress! That’s why we always allow for contingency costs, generally equivalent to 10% of the project. Not used? No problem, they won’t be billed!
Studios Machiavel is the video marketing agency for black sheep. We take you out of the herd by offering you a turnkey service from creation to broadcast, including shooting and editing. We sincerely believe that you should forego the marketing expertise of the big agencies and fall back on video production companies with no broadcasting experience. The only limit to your ambitions should be your imagination.
Absolutely! We’ve got 900 square feet ready for your podcast, storytelling or even our video project together.
We’re big fans of fast, efficient virtual coffee! Come and chat with us over here!
