Price follows hours on site, number of operators and the deliverables list — not the camera body. A three-hour reception with a 60-second recap sits at the bottom of the range. A two-day conference with multi-camera keynote recording, daily sizzles and a highlight reel sits at the top.
How many cameras do you actually need?
- One camera: receptions, networking, mixers, holiday parties, short recap only.
- Two cameras: keynotes, panels, fireside chats — a wide master plus a tight cutaway so the edit can cut without jumping.
- Three cameras: awards shows, stage productions, anything where a full-session recording must be usable start to finish.
- Roaming second operator: when you need both stage coverage and candid room b-roll at the same time.
Turnaround: what arrives when
- Same-day: a 30–45 second sizzle cut, edited on site and sent while the event is still running.
- 48 hours: selected photo set for press and internal comms.
- About 5 days: full edited gallery.
- About 7 days: 60–90 second recap film, plus vertical versions.
- 10–14 days: full-session keynote recordings, captioned and chaptered.
