Costings

Here is a list of the various costs of producing the video we have planned

Equipment Hire Costs according to the company Decode.

4 lights, 800w redheads & stands; £32 for the day.

1 middle range camera (Sony HVR Z1E) with standard lens; £100 for the day.

1 tripod, slider moy unit; £125

1 microphone, sennheiser 416P kit, gun mic, basket suspension system, boom pole, fluffy and XLR leads; £15

I haven't included the greenscreen in the cost as I have heard from many places that it's best to simply buy some good green fabric.

The grand total for equipment hire would be £272 for one day. Seeing as we now plan on filming on a tuesday and then the following thursday, at the very least our production would cost £816. The other costs to be taken into account are if you like "the variables" which are all props and their cost will of course vary on whether or not any of the cast and crew or acquaintances of them have said items.
