If it was national US TV you could ask $30-50 per second for 2 national showings...
Problem being cable TV may be very small with not much budget, aslo with 3-5 minutes you would do a deal.....
You can see rates for time-lapse footage sold

Thanks for that - they've offered me low low $xxx and it's not worth my time to get all the footage together (it's about 30 to 40 small clips from 12 months of shooting) for the price. I'm not looking to make millions out of it, simply get paid what it's worth. It's one of a kind footage in HD and there isn't a chance they could ever get the same footage anywhere else.
Their release specifies that the footage can be used by them for absolutely anything once it is signed over to them.
