How We Do Pricing
Clear, Honest, Transparent.
We believe pricing shouldn't feel like a mystery. When you work with Image Media Lab, we want you to understand exactly what you're paying for — no hidden fees, no vague invoices, just clear numbers backed by years of experience.
"You deserve more than a generic quote. You deserve to know what goes into the work."
Quick Overview (For the Casually Curious)
Every project is custom.
Your cost depends on: script complexity, shoot days, deliverables, and post-production needs.
We offer flat-fee packages for popular needs.
We provide free estimates. Always.

These packages are designed for speed, clarity, and value — without sacrificing quality.
Full Breakdown (For the Detail-Oriented)
Step 1: Discovery & Scoping
Every project starts with a conversation. We learn:
What is the goal of the video or drone service?
What does success look like for you?
What do we need to do to get you there?
We define these as your Success Drivers. We’re not just making a video—we’re solving your problem .
Step 2: Script & Creative
If we’re scripting, we break down:
Story elements
Scenes and complexity
Required assets (B-roll, voiceover, etc.)
This defines how many crew members, locations, and shoot days we’ll need.
Step 3: Production
Most of our crew works on day rates. Pricing depends on:
Number of shoot days
Crew roles required (camera, drone pilot, lighting, director, etc.)
Equipment needed (cinema camera setups, drones, lighting kits)
For drone projects, we evaluate:
Location access & FAA compliance
Type of mission (inspection, mapping, cinematic)
Special requirements (thermal, 3D modeling, etc.)
Step 4: Post-Production
Editing (cutting, pacing, style)
Sound design
Voiceovers and music licensing
Color correction and grading
Every second of final video takes hours in post.
The Math
Simple Formula: (People + Gear) x Days + (Post-production Hours) + (Creative Fee) = Your Total Cost
We’ll lay it out clearly in a proposal you can actually understand.
Why Do Videos Cost So Much?
We hear it often: “Can we get this done for $1,000?”
Sure — if you want a slideshow. But at Image Media Lab, we bring:
Cinematic equipment and pro crew
Decades of creative problem-solving
High-conversion storytelling and clarity
FAA-certified drone operators and field-tested workflows
You're not just paying for a video. You're investing in a tool that solves real business problems — with style, skill, and impact.
