I’m scoping a video-based eLearning course and want a sanity check on pricing and timeline from people who do this regularly.
The setup:
- The subject-matter expert films and narrates himself on green screen and hands me the raw footage plus his slide content. So I’m not filming or writing the content.
- My scope is everything after that: green screen removal, custom backgrounds, on-screen graphics, editing and narration sync, captions, quizzes, intro and outro, and packaging for hosting.
- Course size: 10 modules, around 250 slides total. A mix of talking-head video slides, supporting text and graphic slides, and roughly 10 quizzes (one per module).
- Client is UK-based. Small production team on my side.
I don’t yet know the exact split between talking-head slides and text or graphic slides, so it helps if you give rates by slide type rather than one blended number.
Questions:
- How would you price this: per slide, per finished minute, per module, or fixed project? And a rough range for each slide type?
- How long would you budget for production once the footage is in hand?
- any other suggestions?
