Transparent Video Production Pricing
for Result-Driven Brands

Invest in Outcomes, Not Just Videos

Media Core’s video production pricing is built around business outcomes, not just hours, line items, and technical services. Value-based video production pricing helps results-driven brands understand exactly what they’re investing in: shorter sales cycles, stronger recruiting, and clearer brand stories.

Every project is managed by a dedicated, in-house video team that delivers consistent quality across brand story, sales, recruitment, and testimonial videos, without charging big-agency overhead or dealing with a ragtag group of freelancers.​​

How Our Video Production Pricing Works

An Approach Built for Premium Brands

Value-Based Pricing, Not Cost-Plus

Instead of just adding a margin on top of time and materials, Media Core uses value-based video production pricing that starts with the specific business problem you’re trying to solve. Scopes are designed around the story, deliverables, and deployment support needed to reach those unique business outcomes.​

Investing in Outcomes, Not Just Videos

Every project includes thoughtful planning, professional production, and a clear deployment strategy so each dollar you invest is tied to measurable results, not just a video that checks a box on runtime. We make sure that your videos truly support sales, recruiting, and trust.

Why Premium Video Production Pricing Can Still Lower Your Real Costs

While strategic video production pricing may be higher than basic videographers, the videos can reduce your true long-term cost compared to cheaper options that don’t perform. We get the story, quality, and deployment right the first time to help avoid rework, missed opportunities, and ineffective assets.

Built around your goals, audience, and the scale of your organization

Strategic Video Investments

Every Media Core project follows the same four-phase system: Strategy, Blueprint, Production, and Implementation. Each project is fully tailored to your goals, team, and situation. What changes is the scope of work, level of coordination, and organizational complexity we’re solving for.  
Most projects fall into one of the ranges below:

Single Flagship Video

Starting at $20,000

Good fit when
  • There is one primary business priority to address right now
  • You want a clear, well-positioned video to support sales, recruiting, or brand trust
  • The focus is getting the message right before expanding further
What this delivers
  • One fully planned, produced, and implemented strategic video
  • Media Core-led Strategic Discovery and Blueprint approval before production
  • A video built to support real business use cases and decision-making
This is often where companies begin when video becomes a serious business tool.

Multi-Video Solution

Starting at $32,000

Good fit when
  • Video needs to support multiple priorities, teams, or messages
  • More than one story needs to be communicated clearly
  • Consistency across multiple video assets matters
What this delivers
  • Two strategic videos scoped under a shared strategic framework
  • Unified messaging and positioning across all assets
  • Preferential pricing
This is designed for companies that are able to leverage video in multiple areas of their organization. 

Organization-Wide Communication System

Starting at $55,000+

Good fit when
  • The organization has multiple locations, teams, or business units
  • Brand consistency and message control matter at scale
  • Video plays an ongoing role across sales, recruiting, leadership, and internal communication
What this delivers
  • A multi-video engagement scoped around organizational needs, not a fixed count

The Media Core Method Behind Every Project

A Four-Phase Framework That Protects Your Investment

Phase 1:

Discovery Session to Define the Business Problem
Each project starts with strategic discovery to clarify your audiences, goals, and the specific challenges related to sales, recruiting, or trust that you need to address. This guarantees that video production pricing aligns with real business needs from the beginning.

Phase 2:

Video Story Blueprint That De-Risks Your Investment
Next, Media Core develops a Video Story Blueprint that outlines narrative structure, visuals, and deployment priorities before production begins. This planning step reduces risks by aligning stakeholders and cutting down on costly changes during the project.

Phase 3:

Professional Production That Reflects Your Real Operations
During production, a full, dedicated in-house crew handles your video from start to finish, which means you’re not dealing with rotating freelancers with different interpretations. We film your real people, facilities, and operations instead of leaning on generic stock footage.

Phase 4:

ROI Deployment Plan to Maximize Your Video Spend
Every project includes a Video ROI Playbook that explains where and how to deploy your videos across web, sales, recruiting, and internal channels. That guidance helps you get more value from your video production pricing investment over time.​

What Influences Video Production Pricing

Factors That Shape Your Investment

Scope, Locations, and Timelines That Affect Your Investment

Total investment depends on the number of videos, length, locations, and production days required to capture your story well. Timelines and any compressed schedules can also affect video production pricing due to additional planning and resource needs.​

Strategic Add-Ons That Increase ROI Without Wasting Budget

Optional add-ons, like additional cuts for social media or internal training versions, can significantly increase ROI when planned up front. Media Core helps you choose only the strategic add-ons that fit your goals, so the budget is spent wisely.

Travel At Cost, So Distance Is Never a Barrier

Media Core sends its own in-house crew on the road, not subcontractors or anonymous freelancers, and bills travel at cost to keep distance from becoming a barrier, so you can bring the team virtually anywhere without paying a premium just because they get on a plane. ​

When a Custom Quote Is Better Than a Standard Package

While packages provide helpful starting points, some initiatives, such as large campaigns or multi-year partnerships, are better served by a custom quote. In these cases, video production pricing is tailored to your unique scope and business case.​

How Our Video Production Pricing Compares

Strategic Partner vs. Service Provider

Why We're Higher Than Basic Videographers—And Why That Matters
Media Core’s pricing reflects a fully in-house team of videography subject matter experts, plus strategic planning and personalized deployment support. This is different from basic videographers who focus only on filming and editing without connecting the work to business outcomes.
Why We're Lower Than Big Agencies and National Production Houses
Compared to large agencies or national production houses, Media Core maintains a lean, specialized team structure and regional base, keeping video production pricing more accessible for mid-market and premium regional brands. You get strategic depth and professional execution without paying for layers of unrelated services.​
The Total Cost of Getting Video Production Wrong the First Time
Choosing a low-cost provider can lead to videos that miss the mark, fail to reflect your brand, or can’t be deployed effectively, which means you’re looking at expensive reshoots. Transparent, value-based video production pricing reduces this risk by building strategy, quality, and implementation into the scope from day one.​

Is Media Core's Video Production Pricing Right For You?

We’re Ready to Get Rolling

For Premium Companies Competing on Value, Not Price

Media Core is a perfect choice for organizations that win business through expertise, quality, and trust rather than by offering the lowest bid. If your brand needs video to clearly communicate that difference clearly, value-based video production pricing is a smart move.

For Agencies Needing a Strategic Video Production Partner

Agencies looking for a strategic video production partner can leverage Media Core’s transparent pricing models to plan white-label or collaborative projects with confidence. Clear scopes and outcomes make it easier to integrate video into larger campaigns.
