Corporate video prices in 2026: the market ranges
How much does a corporate video cost? Market ranges, format by format, and why they are so wide.
“How much does a corporate video cost?” is the question producers hear most and answer least. Most websites say “from”, then ask for your e-mail. Here are the ranges we recorded in November 2026 on a dozen French websites displaying their prices, with our prices alongside.
Observed ranges, format by format
| Format | Market (excl. VAT) | Upon Frame (excl. VAT) |
|---|---|---|
| Edited interview or testimonial, 1 camera | €335 to €2,500, most often €900 to €1,500 | €290 in the studio, €490 at your premises |
| 2-minute corporate film | €1,000 to €8,000, median around €3,000 | €1,190 for a portrait, €4,900 for a company profile film |
| Event aftermovie | €650 to €3,500, most often €1,300 to €2,000 | €990, delivered within 72 h |
| Conference recording, one day | €950 to €4,000 depending on the number of cameras | €690 for a simple live stream, €1,790 with 2 cameras and edited talks |
| 30 to 60 second motion design | €500 to €6,000, €1,000 to €2,000 for standard 2D | €990 for 30 seconds |
| Corporate headshot, per person | €80 to €500 | €90 in the studio, delivered the same day |
| Podcast studio, per hour | €45 to €400, €100 to €125 with a technician | €60 alone, €110 with a technician |
| Grading suite, per day | €140 to €450 without a colourist | €350, €200 for a half day |
Why the ranges are so wide
Three variables explain almost all the gap.
- The number of shooting days. A day’s hire of a camera operator with kit costs €400 to €900 freelance, up to €1,200 through an agency. A two-day shoot inevitably costs twice as much as a one-day shoot.
- Crew size. One operator alone, or a director, a cinematographer, a sound recordist and an assistant: that is the difference between a testimonial and a brand film.
- Editing time and the number of rounds of corrections. A template-based edit takes half a day; a written film with original music and three rounds of corrections takes a week.
What lowers the price without lowering quality
Coming to the studio rather than moving the crew. Grouping several people on the same day. Accepting template branding rather than custom graphics. Providing a clear brief and a single contact for approvals. These are exactly the conditions our packs standardise, which is why they cost less than the market median.
Warning signs
- A “from” price without a description of the content: you do not know what you are comparing.
- Usage rights limited in time or to “social media”: you will pay again for the website or television.
- Unspecified travel costs: in the Paris region, they should be included or priced.
- No written lead time: the price is only half the promise.
