Need videos for your organization but can’t afford a production company or in-house producer?

Then hiring a contractor might be right for you.

Hiring a contractor on retainer to produce videos for your organization is an effective solution for staying relevant in today’s digital economy. Digital video content helps build meaningful relationships with your audience. With more than half the world’s population online, even the most traditional donor, volunteer or client is looking for video content to better understand an organization’s mission, culture and service value.

According to ZipRecruiter (August 7, 2018), the average annual pay for a Video Producer ranges from $33,500 to $88,500 nationally. Production companies can charge anywhere from $10,00 to $20,000 for a single video. Most small to mid-size organizations lack a sufficient marketing budget to sustain this level of service. But it’s an absolute necessity for maintaining a consistent and reliable online video presence.

Unlike these pricey options, having a video producer on retainer is a cost-effective way to generate the high quality video content you need to stay relevant online. For as little as $1,500 per month, graybayne film/media will provide production services for 4 videos a year.  The first three months are due upon signing. For $3,000 per month, we will produce 10 videos with the first month due on signing. Save $500 if you pay for the full year. We currently have three spots available for 2019, special consideration given to entities with 501(c)3 status.
