What affects the cost of a video?

A price depends on the actual scope, not just the final running time. Preparation, the number of locations, the people to film, sound constraints, equipment requirements and filming time all affect the work involved.

Editing also varies: the amount of footage, narrative choices, subtitles, graphics, music, sound design and alternative versions. Specify the intended usage rights, any licences, deadlines and the number of feedback rounds included. For editing only, describe the formats and quality of the files available.

To request a useful estimate, gather your objective, deliverables, dates, locations, intended uses and budget if you have one. A quote helps clarify what is and is not included. No prices, monthly packages or unconfirmed services are announced here.
