Video Production Cost Calculator
Most London production companies will not give you a number until you have sat through a discovery call. We publish ours, and this is the next step: an estimator built on the same rates we quote from. Set the brief below and update the range as you go.
It is not a quote, but it is the same logic we use before the first call, and it will put you within a tier before you have spoken to anyone.

- Your estimate
This is an estimate, not a quote. It is built on our published rates and the brief you have set. The written quote is more precise because it accounts for the things a slider cannot: permits, tight turnarounds, specialist kit, and exactly how far the film will travel.

OUR PROCESS.
What happens next?
01 · Within 48 hours
A written quote estimate lands in your inbox. It shows the same lines the estimator does, and it says plainly if a cheaper tier would do the job. No discovery call required. If you want one, it's short, and it's free.
02 · Before anyone picks up a camera
We deliver a treatment, shot list, schedule and statement of work in writing. For campaign work, this is where the idea gets pressure-tested, and it's why day two costs less than day one: the thinking is done once.
03 · From wrap to delivery
First cuts are often delivered within ten working days of the shoot. Two rounds of revisions are included, then the hero film and every cutdown are delivered in the sizes your channels need.

A single commercial shoot day starts at £3,500 with LutherMEB Productions, with a director-led crew, one hero film, three platform cutdowns, two revision rounds and licensed music included.
Campaign production with a full crew and a deliverables set built for paid media runs £8,000 to £20,000.
Flagship production with named talent, multiple locations and broadcast delivery starts at £25,000.
-
It sits within the range we would quote for the same brief nine times in ten.
The written quote is more precise because it accounts for the things a slider cannot: the complexity of your locations, the talent you actually want, and how many versions your channels really need.
-
No. It is an estimate built on our published rates. A written quote is free, lands within 48 hours, and is what we work from.
If a cheaper tier is the right call for the brief, the quote will say so.
-
Pre-production, treatment, scheduling and kit logistics happen once. Day two carries crew and kit but not the setup, so it adds roughly 60% of the first day rather than doubling the cost.
-
Shoot days, crew size, talent and usage rights. Usage is the one most buyers miss: the same film licensed for UK paid social, UK broadcast or international use carries different talent, voiceover and music fees, and the difference can be larger than the talent day rates themselves.
-
Two revision rounds, project management from brief to delivery, a colour grade, licensed production music, one hero film and three platform cutdowns.
The quote itself is free. If a studio charges you to find out what they charge, look elsewhere.
-
Yes, and it is usually cheaper than two bookings because one crew and one call sheet cover both. Flag it at brief stage so the schedule is built for it.
Photography runs on its own ladder, from £1,500 per production day; the full breakdown is in our commercial photography cost article.
-
Single days start at £3,500 and that is the floor for commissioned commercial work with LutherMEB Productions.
For gyms, studios and class-based content, our sister service FitnessClassFilming.co.uk runs a separate productised offer.
