If you’ve reached out to three different Orlando video production companies for a quote on the “same” corporate video, you’ve probably watched three very different numbers come back: $2,000 from one, $8,000 from another, $25,000 from a third. You weren’t being lowballed. You weren’t being overcharged. You were looking at three completely different productions wearing the same name.
“Corporate video” is an umbrella term. It can mean one camera pointed at a CEO for twenty minutes. It can also mean a two day, multi location shoot with a full crew, a scripted story, custom motion graphics, and a licensed soundtrack. The price tags look nothing alike because the products are nothing alike.
Orlando has 20–30+ notable video production companies operating in the metro, a deep, competitive market fed by the tourism industry, the convention circuit, and a concentration of corporate headquarters. That saturation is great for buyers in theory, but in practice it makes pricing feel impossible to pin down.
At Big Boy Productions, we’ve been producing cinematic video in Orlando since 2018, and we built our company around fixed bid pricing and no surprises because we’ve heard too many stories from clients who got burned by vague hourly quotes and scope creep invoices. Below, we’ll break down exactly what corporate video costs in the Orlando market in 2026, why quotes vary so widely, and how to evaluate a video production company in Orlando before you look at their price tag.
The Short Answer: Orlando Corporate Video Pricing at a Glance
Based on current 2025–2026 rates across the Orlando and Central Florida market, here’s the landscape:
| Tier | Typical Price Range | What It Delivers |
| Entry level / freelance | $500 – $1,500 | Solo videographer, one camera, minimal editing. Good for raw capture only. |
| Single camera interview / testimonial | $1,500 – $3,500 | Half day shoot, professional gear, polished short edit. |
| Multi camera + b-roll | $3,500 – $6,500 | Full day, small crew, multi cam coverage, edited deliverable with graphics. |
| Corporate overview / brand video | $6,500 – $12,000 | Creative development, scripted story, motion graphics, multiple deliverables. |
| Multi-day / multi-location brand film | $10,000 – $20,000+ | Multiple shoot days, cinema gear, drone, premium post-production. |
| Commercial / broadcast | $12,000 – $35,000+ | TV caliber production, creative development, licensed talent. |
Most Orlando businesses commissioning a professionally produced corporate video land between $3,500 and $12,000. Below that, you’re getting a recording rather than a crafted piece of content. Above it, you’re paying for production values that only make sense for flagship campaigns or broadcast work.
One note on pricing transparency: most Orlando video production companies don’t publish prices; they push every inquiry into a custom quote. That’s an industry wide habit, and it protects the vendor more than the buyer. You’ll see specific numbers throughout this guide because we think clients deserve to know what things cost before they sit down for a sales call.
First Decide: What Kind of Project Is This?
Before pricing, it helps to figure out which of two project categories you’re actually in. Most corporate video projects fall cleanly into one or the other, and the right vendor, budget, and process are different for each.
Quick Turnaround Projects
You need a solid, professional video fast. The story is simple, the audience is internal or transactional, and the goal is “done well, not redefined.”
Examples: customer testimonials, training modules, internal announcements, event recap videos, social media content, executive updates.
What matters most here: reliable process, clear communication, fast delivery, and proven ability to hit deadlines. Creative flourish matters less than predictability. Budgets typically land in the $1,500–$8,000 range.
Brand Defining Projects
This is the video meant to represent your company for the next two to three years. It’ll live at the top of your homepage, open every sales pitch, or anchor a recruitment campaign. It needs to feel like you and make people feel something.
Examples: hero brand films, recruiting and culture videos, flagship product launches, investor videos, broadcast commercials.
What matters most here: creative partnership, portfolio depth, storytelling skill, and strategic input. You’re hiring a studio to help you find the story, not just capture it. Budgets typically start at $8,000 and can climb well past $25,000 depending on scope.
Matching the project type to the vendor matters almost as much as matching the budget. A studio that’s great at cranking out fast, clean testimonials may not be the right team for a scripted brand film, and vice versa.
The Five Tiers of Orlando Corporate Video Pricing
Tier 1: Entry-Level ($500 – $1,500)
At the bottom of the market, you’re hiring a solo freelance videographer. Hourly and day rates for Orlando videographers typically start around $500 and climb toward $1,500 for a full day, depending on experience and equipment.
This tier works for internal recordings, simple event capture, or “just press record” projects. It won’t deliver scripted storytelling, brand level polish, or anything you’d put on your homepage as your hero video.
Tier 2: Single Camera Interview / Testimonial ($1,500 – $3,500)
This is the entry point for most serious corporate video work. You’re working with a production company instead of a lone freelancer, and the quote includes pre-production planning, a small professional crew, and a full edit.
What this buys you:
- A 2-person crew (camera operator + producer or audio)
- Professional cinema or mirrorless camera with proper lighting and audio
- Half-day shoot at a single location
- Polished short form edit (30–90 seconds) with music, lower thirds, and color correction
- Two rounds of revisions
Perfect for: single testimonials, executive interviews, short announcements, simple company overviews, and recruiting videos where the goal is professional polish without a big creative lift.
Tier 3: Multi-Camera + B-Roll ($3,500 – $6,500)
The Orlando market’s true sweet spot. Most mid-sized businesses commissioning a “real” corporate video land here. You’re paying for production value and storytelling, not just filming.
What this buys you:
- 2–3 person crew with a dedicated producer
- Multi camera setup (two to three cameras) and higher end glass
- A full shoot day, often with multiple interview subjects
- B-roll coverage to support interviews and story
- Motion graphics, animated lower thirds, color grading, sound design
- Licensed stock music
- A hero video plus 1–2 social cutdowns
Tier 4: Corporate Overview / Brand Video ($6,500 – $12,000)
At this level, you’re commissioning a signature piece, a brand film, a sales anchor, or a recruitment video meant to represent your company for years.
What this buys you:
- Full creative development: treatment, script, storyboard, location scouting
- Professional on-camera talent when the story calls for it
- Cinema cameras, specialty lenses, occasional drone or gimbal work
- 1–2 shoot days, often across multiple locations
- Full post-production: editing, motion graphics, color grading, sound design, voice-over, premium music licensing
- A complete deliverables package hero video, social cutdowns, trade show cut, ad variants
Tier 5: Multi-Day / Broadcast ($12,000 – $35,000+)
Television commercials, flagship brand films, high end recruitment campaigns, and LED volume productions live here. Director day rates alone can run $2,500–$10,000, and budgets reflect agency level creative development, licensed talent, insurance, permits, and extensive post production.
Pricing by Corporate Video Type
Different corporate video formats have different typical budgets. Here’s what each format actually costs in the Orlando market:
Company Overview / Brand Video
Typical range: $6,500 – $15,000
The signature 60-to-180-second film that lives on your homepage and anchors your sales deck. Scripted storytelling, multiple locations, interviews, b-roll, polished post-production.
Executive & Leadership Interviews
Typical range: $1,800 – $6,000
Properly lit, professionally captured leadership interviews with clean audio, multiple cameras, and a polished edit. Add b-roll at multiple locations and the budget climbs.
Customer Testimonial Videos
Typical range: $1,500 – $3,500 per testimonial batch pricing is dramatically cheaper
The economics of testimonials are all about batching. A standalone, fully-produced testimonial with b-roll at the customer’s location runs $3,000–$6,000. A batch of five captured in a single day can bring the per-video cost under $1,500.
Training & Onboarding Videos
Typical range: $1,200 – $3,500 per finished minute
Training content is usually priced per finished minute because modules vary wildly. Simple instructor-on-camera modules are cheapest; scenario-based training with multiple actors, locations, and graphics sits at the top of the range.
Capacity note: Training video is one of the few formats where volume dramatically changes the math. We recently produced 160 training videos in a single week for FIT 407, one of the fastest growing Pilates studios in Central Florida. When your library needs to be built fast, batched production can cut per-video cost by 40–60%.
Internal Communications
Typical range: $2,500 – $6,000
Leadership updates, culture reinforcement videos, policy rollouts, change-management communications. Usually single location, interview driven, fast turnaround projects.
Investor & Stakeholder Presentations
Typical range: $4,500 – $12,000
These need to feel credible and polished. Expect proper pre-production, professional cinema cameras, cinematic lighting, and high quality motion graphics for data visualization.
Recruitment & Culture Videos
Typical range: $5,000 – $15,000
These need to feel authentic and aspirational real employees, multiple office locations, story-driven interviews. Drone footage and b-roll across departments add cost quickly.
Event & Trade Show Coverage
Typical range: $850 – $2,500 per day
Single-camera coverage with a same-day recap edit at the low end. Multi-camera live switched coverage of a main stage with breakout room capture at the high end.
Commercials / Broadcast Spots
Typical range: $12,000 – $35,000+
Broadcast quality requires the whole stack: professional creative, licensed talent, full crews, cinema equipment, and post-production that can survive 4K delivery and ad network quality control.

What Actually Drives Your Quote Up or Down
When you compare two Orlando production companies, the difference usually isn’t “quality vs. value” it’s what each quote actually includes. Understanding these line items lets you read a quote critically.
Pre-Production (15–25% of a typical budget)
- Scriptwriting: $500–$2,500 for a short corporate video
- Storyboarding: $300–$1,500 depending on complexity
- Location scouting: $200–$1,000 when multiple locations need evaluation
- Casting: Free with employees; $500–$5,000+ per role for professional talent
Production: Crew
Crew size is usually the biggest variable in any Orlando quote. Typical crew day rates fall within $1,000–$5,000 for a one-day shoot.
- Director: $800–$2,000/day
- Producer: $600–$1,500/day
- Director of Photography: $800–$2,000/day
- Camera operator: $500–$1,000/day
- Audio engineer: $500–$900/day
- Gaffer: $500–$900/day
- Production assistant: $200–$400/day
- Hair and makeup: $500–$1,200/day
A small three-person crew runs about $1,800/day; a full six-person crew with department heads can exceed $5,000/day before equipment.
Production: Equipment
Equipment is the hidden variable in most Orlando quotes. Production companies that rent gear per shoot pass those costs through to you. Companies with in-house equipment absorb gear costs into the project bid.
Typical rental add-ons:
- Cinema camera package: $500–$2,000/day
- Drone with licensed pilot: $500–$1,500/day
- Gimbal / steadicam operator: $500–$1,000/day
- Jib / crane: $400–$1,200/day
- LED volume stage rental: $3,000–$10,000/day
Our sister company Big Boy Grip and Lighting gives us in-house access to the equipment most studios rent; those savings get passed through to you in every fixed-bid quote.
Production: Shoot Days and Locations
Each additional shoot day compounds the cost. Each additional location on a shoot day adds setup and teardown time, usually an extra hour or two of crew time.
A common budget surprise: a “two location, one day shoot” often costs nearly what “two shoot days” would, because move time eats the schedule.
Post-Production
A good editor’s rate in the Orlando market typically falls between $75 and $150 per hour. Ours is a flat $100/hour for all clients with no tier pricing, no rush surcharges on reasonable timelines.
Watch for these line items:
- Editing: $75–$150/hour
- Color grading: $300–$1,500 per short-form video
- Sound design and mix: $300–$1,000 per video
- Motion graphics: $300–$2,000
- Custom 2D or 3D animation: $1,500–$15,000+
- Voice-over talent: $300–$1,500 per session
- Licensed music: $50–$500 for stock; $1,000–$5,000+ for premium; $2,500–$15,000+ for custom composition
- Revisions: Most quotes include two rounds; additional revisions typically $100–$300/hour
Multi-Deliverable Packaging
Modern corporate video projects almost always include multiple deliverables cut from the same footage: a hero version, a 60-second social version, a 15 second ad cut, vertical cuts for Instagram Stories, TikTok, and YouTube Shorts. Each additional cut adds $200–$1,000 of edit time. Bundling three to five deliverables into a project fee is almost always cheaper than commissioning them separately.
How to Vet an Orlando Video Production Company
Price alone is a terrible way to pick a video partner. In a market with 20–30+ production companies, evaluation has to go deeper. Here’s how to separate legitimate studios from vendors you’ll regret hiring.
Evaluate the Portfolio Honestly
- Does their recent work look like the video you want? Don’t assume a studio with a great real estate reel will nail your B2B brand film.
- Are clients named and identifiable? Named clients with recognizable logos (not “a major retailer”) signal real relationships.
- Is the portfolio dated? If every piece is from three years ago, their current team may not be the one that made that work.
- Do they show their own footage, or stock? A sneaky practice in this industry is padding reels with purchased stock footage. Ask directly.
Read Reviews for Quality Trajectory, Not Just Star Average
A 4.9 lifetime average means nothing if the last ten reviews are 3-star complaints about missed deadlines. Sort reviews by newest-first and look for drift:
- Are recent reviews as enthusiastic as older ones?
- Do any recent reviews mention communication breakdowns, scope creep, or deliverable delays?
- Does the company respond to reviews, especially negative ones?
A studio that doesn’t respond to reviews is a studio that isn’t paying attention.
Verify Trust Signals Beyond Marketing Language
Look for:
- A real team page with named staff and bios, not stock illustrations
- A verifiable office address (Orlando has plenty of “Orlando” companies that are actually run from two states over)
- Named client case studies with specific outcomes, not vague “helped client increase engagement”
- An active Google Business Profile with recent photos, posts, and Q&A activity
- Insurance and permits professional production companies carry $1M+ general liability coverage
Request Proposals From Two or Three Companies
The single most effective vetting step is writing a clear brief and sending it to 2–3 studios. You’ll learn more from the proposals than from any website:
- Which studio’s creative approach feels closest to what you want?
- Whose quote is itemized versus bundled into a vague “all-in” number?
- Who asked smart follow-up questions versus who just sent a price?
- Who included references without being asked?
Ask each finalist for 2–3 client references for projects similar to yours, and clarify the number of revision rounds included. These two questions separate the pros from the pretenders.
Orlando-Specific Considerations
A deep talent pool keeps rates competitive. Orlando is a production hub thanks to Universal, Disney, and a strong freelance community. That supply keeps day rates below New York and LA but above smaller Florida markets.
Hiring locals saves real money. Production companies outside Central Florida often add travel, lodging, per diem, and mileage sometimes 15–30% above the base quote. Local Orlando and Maitland-based companies don’t have those surcharges for regional work.
Year-round shooting weather. Unlike northern markets, Orlando production companies don’t build weather premiums into Q1 budgets.
Industry specific clusters. Orlando’s tourism, medical, defense, aerospace, and tech clusters mean several local studios have deep category experience.
Hurricane season (June–November) can affect scheduling. Reputable studios build weather contingencies into contracts. Ask specifically how weather delays are handled.
Market saturation is real. With 20–30+ notable production companies in the metro area, you’ll find options at every budget — but you’ll also find a lot of noise. Vet carefully.
How to Get the Most Value From Your Budget
- Batch your content. Shooting three testimonials, a brand video, and a recruiting video across two back-to-back shoot days is dramatically cheaper per deliverable than commissioning them individually over six months.
- Nail your brief before calling production companies. Clarity on audience, goal, length, and deliverables means more accurate quotes and less time paying for discovery.
- Use employees when authenticity matters. Recruitment and culture videos benefit from real employees; paid actors can work against the message.
- Repurpose ruthlessly. A well-planned shoot should produce 5–10 deliverables, not one.
- Invest in pre-production, not fancier cameras. A $5,000 video with a strong script outperforms a $15,000 video with a weak one.
- Choose fixed-bid over hourly whenever possible. Fixed-bid contracts put risk on the production company, not you. Hourly contracts tend to drift.
Questions to Ask Before You Sign
- What’s included at each stage pre-production, production, and post?
- How many shoot days, locations, and crew members are in this quote?
- What equipment is included, and what’s a specialty upcharge?
- How many revisions are included, and what’s the rate after that?
- How many deliverables are in the quote, and what do additional cutdowns cost?
- Who owns the final video and raw footage?
- What’s the payment schedule?
- Is music licensing included and is the license commercial, perpetual, and transferable?
- How are weather delays handled?
- Can I see three full examples of videos in this price range and format?
- Can you provide two or three client references for similar projects?
The Big Boy Productions Approach: Fixed-Bid, No Surprises
Big Boy Productions has been producing cinematic video in Orlando since 2018, commercial, brand, and short-form content crafted for performance. We’ve built our business around a pricing philosophy most of the industry still resists: one fixed bid, no hourly surprises, no scope-creep invoices.
Here’s how that works in practice:
- One transparent project price. We quote the whole project, crew, gear, post, deliverables, as one number agreed on before we start.
- In-house team, in-house gear. Our creative, production, and post teams are all under one roof. Our sister company Big Boy Grip and Lighting gives us in-house access to the equipment most studios rent. Those savings get passed through to you.
- $100/hour editing, flat. For add-on editing work outside a fixed-bid package, our editing rate is $100/hour across all clients, no tier pricing, no rush surcharges on reasonable timelines.
- Six-step process, every project. Discovery, creative development, production, post-production, delivery, and ongoing partnership. Each step is defined upfront so you always know where your project stands.
- Real capacity when you need it. 160 training videos in a week for FIT 407. Full TV-spot production for All About Beautiful Smiles and Fannie Hillman + Associates. National brand video work for ClearSky Technologies and Holiday Inn Club Vacations. Whatever your volume and timeline, we’ve done it.
- Based in Maitland, serving Orlando and nationwide. We’re local enough to show up in person whenever it matters, and staffed for projects anywhere in the country when the story calls for travel.
A corporate video production in Orlando in 2026 can cost anywhere from $500 to $35,000+. The honest middle of the market, where most businesses get a professionally produced video that actually moves the needle, is roughly $3,500 to $12,000. The smartest first conversation with any production company isn’t “how much does it cost?” It’s “given our goals, audience, and channels, what’s the right scope and what does that scope cost?” Any studio worth hiring will answer that in concrete terms, line by line, and help you build a video that earns back its budget.
If you’re ready to have that conversation, tell us your story. We’ll come back with a quote you can actually trust and create something that works.
