How much does conference filming cost in Australia?

The short answer

Conference filming in Australia generally costs between $2,100+GST for a half-day, single-camera speaker recording and $9,000+GST or more for fully customised, multi-day, multi-camera coverage. Most single-day conferences land somewhere in the middle. The price is driven by how many cameras and crew you need, how long you're filming, and how much editing and extra content you want afterwards.

What you actually pay for

A conference filming quote is really four things bundled together:

• Crew and cameras — one operator on one camera is the entry point; multi-camera and multi-room coverage costs more because it's more people and gear.
• Time on site — a half-day (around 4 hours) is cheaper than a full day (around 8 hours), and multi-day events attract discounted day rates.
• Editing — every package includes edited speaker videos within 24 hours. Extras like highlight films, social cut-downs and speaker interviews add to the edit time.
• Add-ons — b-roll, speaker spotlights, livestreaming and a custom delegate portal each add cost but also add value.

A rough guide to the tiers

Here's how it breaks down at Conference Filming Australia:

Why we publish our prices

A lot of production companies hide their pricing. We don't, because the most common question we get is simply "what does this cost?" — and you deserve a straight answer before you pick up the phone. The quote you receive is transparent and agreed up front; if something changes on the day (a session runs overtime, say), we check with you before doing the extra work.

What's usually not included

A few things sit outside a standard quote: incidental costs like parking are charged at cost, and edits beyond the agreed scope (or extra rounds of changes) are quoted separately. We'll always talk you through these before proceeding.
