  • Freelance rates?

    Posted by Neil Orman on January 17, 2018 at 9:41 pm

    I know there’s great variation, but could anyone tell me the typical rates or price range for freelance video work? I’m a video producer and a colleague asked me this question. But I’ve never done much freelancing. Any guidance I could tell her would be appreciated.

    In case it helps, the typical jobs she has would be straightforward lighting/recording of interviews at remote locations, and pretty simple editing of event videos.

    Thanks,
    Neil

    For real pros, I’ve seen day rates anywhere from $500 to $1200/day depending on experience, and it can go higher, no problem. If you want to translate that hourly, $50-$120/hr, based on a 10-hour day.
