RE: Video on a Budget for Artists, Part 1: Types of Video
Some bands pay for their music videos out of pocket, while bands signed with major record labels are often appropriated with a music video budget that is ... Editor fee: $500 – $1250/day; Redundant Hard disk archive: $200 – $400; Visual FX artist fee: $75 – $150/hour; Colorist fee: $100 – $200/hour.
oh yes as a professional video editor I'm definitely aware of how pricey it can get. It's one thing when you have a label able to support a professional crew (which is great, and definitely the way to go), but if you're not signed or just starting out - or not a musical artist - then I firmly believe that you shouldn't let budget hold you back from making anything that you want or need to get your artwork out there! Hopefully this series inspires some people. :)
Yeah it's really useful information.
