Hello, my name is Chris Jadallah with Calliope Films back again with the Calliope Corner, where we discuss the hard to ask, hard to answer questions. Today's question, how much does a video cost? So I'm going to be honest with you, that question used to frustrate me. And it frustrates a lot of people in this industry. So I want to take a moment and cut to the "Hey, would you chill out" cam?

Hey, would you chill out? It's totally reasonable for a consumer to wonder how much a product or service costs. You do it all the time, you silly goose.

So yes, that is a completely fair question, right? But I think the frustration comes from the fact that the answer is, it depends on so many different factors. But I get it, you're a business owner, you want your dollar to go as far as possible, right? You want to get the most for the dollars you're spending.

So let's break down those factors that contribute to the cost of your video. So you're better equipped when you're sitting across a video production agency. At the end of the day, it all comes down to how long it's going to take to produce your video. Duh, right? More specifically, how many days?

And that is completely decided by how long it takes for us to complete these three steps: Pre-production, production and post-production. And that's why I'm starting my first sub-series of the "Calliope Corner", "Jadallahs Dollas". Where all of your dollar, dollar bills go, y'all? Where we discuss where your dollar, dollar bills go and why. In the meantime, keep your questions coming and let's talk about it.
