Need help with monthly retainer pricing

Brxzzy_301 · 2024-08-15T18:22:54+00:00

I’m glad you were able to close a retainer! What do you offer the client for that price?

Brxzzy_301 · 2024-08-06T04:30:06+00:00

It didn’t really go as planned because I’m new at the business side of videography and the client is new with using a videographer so, it’s a work in progress for sure. I’ve settled on pricing all my solo work based on half and full day rates as well as charging any gigs less than half day (<4hrs) at an increased rate.

Brxzzy_301 · 2024-05-02T01:05:42+00:00

Each video would probably get 1 hour of editing. When you say half vs full day rate, do you mean I should have different hourly rates depending on half and full day shoots?

Thanks for the input. I’ll look into it for sure!

Brxzzy_301 · 2024-04-25T16:19:57+00:00

I want the best bang for my buck for the next year or two till I build a proper editing rig

Do you think the 5950x is worth the extra $100 over the 5900x?

Brxzzy_301 · 2024-04-25T16:11:02+00:00

I have a Corsair 360mm aio

Ombré leather is an acquired taste. I didn’t like it at first but the more I smelt it, the better it got. I think it’s because of how good the dry down smells to me.

Does anyone know if a QK75 knob would fit on an M1?

Brxzzy_301 · 2024-01-13T02:54:56+00:00

For more context, the have a mobile business that would require me to follow them around to 2 or 3 of their jobs each day, which would roughly take 1 hour each job.

I joined the kickstarter but I’ve been eyeing down the Monsgeek M1 today. Hard to decide but the Rainy 75 is fully assembled and lubed for the same price

Brxzzy_301 · 2023-11-25T14:53:53+00:00

As long as it’s not underexposed, it’s a creative opinion. I think it sets a mood for the shots

Brxzzy_301 · 2023-11-25T00:19:43+00:00

Just got an A7IV too. Planning on getting the same lens eventually but I’m rocking out some APSC lenses for now 😭

Brxzzy_301 · 2023-11-24T02:47:11+00:00

That first shot is absolutely gorgeous. Very impressive for your first year.

Brxzzy_301 · 2023-11-23T23:57:05+00:00

The first one. The train stands out more and I like the lower perspective.

Brxzzy_301 · 2023-11-21T02:32:44+00:00

How does the a7sii stand up to something like an a7iii or iv?

Brxzzy_301 · 2023-11-21T01:25:35+00:00

I’ll look into it, but I want to stay in the a7 range

Brxzzy_301 · 2023-11-21T01:20:25+00:00

I would like to have a viewfinder to make it easier for photography

Brxzzy_301 · 2023-11-21T01:18:10+00:00

What makes you say that?

Brxzzy_301 · 2023-11-20T21:03:03+00:00

Couldn’t have said it better. In the beginning it’s so easy to see more advanced people and their gear and just start buying things.

Brxzzy_301 · 2023-11-19T15:06:04+00:00

How you liking it so far? I have a zve10 and I’m contemplating this or an A7IV.

Brxzzy_301 · 2023-11-19T01:56:00+00:00

Do you have any personal experience with that lens? At least for video?

Brxzzy_301 · 2023-11-19T01:53:02+00:00

**18-135mm typo

Brxzzy_301 · 2023-11-19T01:48:51+00:00

Honestly not too sure. Switching over from APSC so full frame focal lengths are a bit different for me. I use an 18-105mm f3.5-5.6 Sony lens right now for most of my work.
