Our Pricing Guide to UK Videography in 2025
One of our biggest frustrations in the video industry is how hard it is to find clear information on what videography actually costs, or what you’re really getting for your money.
So we like to be open. Below, you’ll find an overview of how our pricing works, what influences it, and how strategy plays a crucial role in making sure your investment actually performs.
How our pricing works
Different video agencies price in all sorts of ways.
Some by the day, others by the hour, and some based purely on “production value.”
We take a project-based approach.
We agree on your goals, build a strategy around the outcomes you want, and then give a clear fixed price.
Most of our clients invest between £1,000 and £6,000 depending on scope.
Key factors that influence pricing include:
Strategic depth: Are we simply filming, or developing a campaign designed to drive measurable results?
Content volume: Number of videos, formats (e.g. testimonials, explainers, social clips).
Distribution planning: Whether we’re tailoring content for web, YouTube, or social media campaigns.
Every business is different. Some clients just need a single trust-building video; others want a full content library to power their sales and marketing for months.
That’s why before filming, we sit down and work out exactly which videos will deliver the biggest impact for your investment.
Understanding your videography options.
Before you decide what’s right for you, it helps to understand the different levels of service you’ll come across in the UK videography market.
Freelance Videographers: Typical Investment £500 – £1,000
You’re paying for filming and editing only. No strategic input, no campaign planning, just raw content. Great for simple event coverage or one-off pieces, but results vary.
Video Production Companies: Typical Investment £1,000 – £5,000
Often package filming, editing, and sometimes scriptwriting.
Strategy tends to be surface-level, you tell them what you want, and they deliver it. The focus could more be on producing a polished video, not necessarily one that converts.
Full Marketing Agencies: Typical Investment £10,000+
Multi-video campaigns across multiple platforms, often for established brands or nationwide rollouts. Includes deep discovery, multiple filming days, ad strategy, and analytics integration.
But price is half the story
When you invest in video, you’re not just buying a product, you’re trying to solve an issue for your business.
A visually impressive video that doesn’t align with your sales strategy won’t generate results.
That’s why every Eighteen02 project starts with clarity:
Who’s the audience?
What’s the goal?
Where will it live, and how will it be used?
That level of thinking means your investment goes further.
Instead of a “nice video that gets posted once,” you’ll have content built for long-term visibility, SEO benefit, and lead conversion.
At Eighteen02 Media, we like to keep our pricing inline with your typical production companies. But bringing some of the services you’d expect from larger agencies to make sure your project is rooted in strategy.
Because as well as making your video look nice, we want it to perform for you.
