The price of photo production depends on the number of hours spent on site and the use of the photos. For example, use for advertising or commercial purposes will incur a higher rate than use for internal communication or editorial purposes, for example.
The services are as follows:
minimum service: 2 hours on site. Even for half an hour of photography, the 2-hour rate will apply.
half-day rate: a maximum of 4 hours on site.
full-day rate: a maximum of 8 hours on site.
overtime: $125/hour
For photography, the service includes basic equipment such as a 24 MP camera, a few lenses, and a backup flash. If additional equipment is required, such as for a studio or a high-resolution camera, this equipment will be charged as an extra.
If the shooting location is more than an hour’s drive from Brussels, additional travel costs may apply.
The price of post-production depends on the following factors:
You will understand that post-production work takes a lot of time, often as much time as the shooting itself, if not more.
For photography services, the following equipment is used:
NIKON Z8 (45MP)
14-30/4S
24/1.8S
35/1.8S
85/1.8S
24-120/4S
reportage flash
AD100 flash
Fuji XH2S
18/1.4
50/2
90/2
If the photography order is for studio portraits or requires additional equipment such as a drone, studio flashes, or a Macbook Pro for a connected shoot, for example, it will be billed separately.
The price of film or video production depends on the number of hours spent on site and the intended use of the film or video. For example, use for advertising or commercial purposes will incur a higher rate than use for internal communication or social media.
The services are as follows:
minimum service: 2 hours on site. Even for one hour of film, the 2-hour flat rate will apply.
half-day flat rate: a maximum of 4 hours on site.
full-day flat rate: a maximum of 8 hours on site.
overtime: $150/hour
For film and video, the service does not include equipment. Filming equipment is billed separately.
If the filming location is more than an hour’s drive from Brussels, additional travel costs may apply.
The following equipment is used for filming:
Depending on the type of film or video to be shot, the equipment used will be billed separately. Some configurations require a second cameraman, a sound engineer, or a camera assistant. In all cases, this will be billed separately.
Post-production for film and video takes a lot of time because there are many steps involved and machine time must be taken into account. With MOV files becoming increasingly large, reaching up to 8K at 60 frames per second in Prores or RAW, the file size is extremely heavy. The time spent on post-production depends not only on the recording time available, but also on the final editing time of the film or video (30 sec., 60 sec., 90 sec., 2 min.). The post-production process can be divided into several stages:
The entire process can take several days.
Travel costs are never included in the price. For Brussels, a flat rate of €25 is applied to cover travel and parking. For areas outside Brussels, mileage is calculated at €0.50/km from Ixelles. Parking fees may also apply.
The original RAW or MOV files are backed up on two Barracuda external hard drives for a period of one year. Only selected files are backed up. Unused files are deleted after the client’s final selection and delivery of the final files. The delivered files are backed up in a secure Dropbox account and on a Barracuda external hard drive.
