How much should I charge???? - GoFuckYourself.com

Deepai · 11-19-2004, 10:41 AM

OK, I haven't done tons of free lance video editing, so my question is for those of you who have paid for it or do it. I've got 3 30 minute tapes of content, that needs to be cut up into member clips, 1 min free hosted clips, watermarked, and compressed. How much do you guys think I should charge? Its fairly simple, but I don't want to undercharge/overcharge too much. Thanks for your input!

85 to 100 clams per video.

I'm actually looking for someone w/ an IQ over 30 to reply. I hope I'm not asking too much.

Uh, yeah, I do this exact job everyday. Don't assume for a second you know who the fuck you are talking too, and don't spout off. You asked a question, I gave you an honest answer. No need to be a prick.

You gave the average GFY answer. Obviously you don't know me, so don't act as if I have any reason to have to listen to you. I'll spout off if I want to. You gave an honest answer, right. I don't care to really argue, I'm looking for an educated guess on how much I should charge. .

btw, if you meant dollars for clams, then my apologies. You've got to understand I'm not where you are, that sounds like gfy lingo to me.

I apologize for my earlier response. I did indeed mean dollars when I said clams. I thought that was more of a known tern for $$$. I should not have flown off the hook like that.

I quoted what I would have told my clients. It should be less than an hour for what you have been asked to do, and I would charge between 85-100 an hour for what was requested of you per video.

BTW - I am running a Sony RS530G with Sony Vegas, and this would take (I think, based on my experience) and hour per video to complete.

edit - In fact, if you are interested in a collab, hit me up sometime. I would do one of these for free just to make a new connection. Bill - 346940591

Well I dont actually get warm and fuzzy inside, but it is nice to see that some work actually gets done here on gfy.

3 x 30 minute segments, compressed to correct data rate. Cut into 1 min clips with watermarks and a decent still from each one is about $60 max. That is how much I personally charge.
