What moves the price
- Half or full day — an event videographer filming a full conference costs well above a half-day highlights job
- Crew size — a second or third camera operator for interviews and audience reactions adds a day rate each
- Type of edit — a short highlights film is quicker to cut than full recordings of every talk on stage
- Audio — clean sound from the stage or a lectern means linking into the venue's PA or bringing microphones
- Evenings and weekends — awards nights and Saturday events are priced above weekday daytime filming
- Turnaround — next-day delivery of a highlights edit for social media carries a rush charge

How to pay less
- Book the event videographer for the key sessions only rather than the whole day
- Ask for a highlights film instead of full recordings of every talk
- Accept the standard turnaround rather than paying an event videographer for an overnight edit
Before you book
- Tell guests and speakers the event is being filmed and how the video will be used, in line with UK GDPR
- Check the venue's rules on filming, cabling and access to the PA for audio
- Agree the number of edits and revision rounds for the event video in writing
- If music will be heard in the film, ask how the event videographer licenses it
Event Videographer cost: questions people ask
Most UK event filming costs between £390 and £1,500, and about £600 for a half day with a highlights edit. Weekend or evening work with extra crew and full recordings sits at the top.
Usually a half day of around three and a half hours or a full day of about seven. Editing follows over one to three weeks.
Under UK GDPR you should tell attendees they may be filmed and how the footage will be used, through booking information and signs at the venue. Offer a camera-free area for anyone who prefers not to appear.
Some can, but live streaming needs extra equipment, an encoder and a reliable connection, so it is quoted as a separate service.
Full recordings of every session, live streaming, extra crew, rush edits and travel beyond the usual area are usually extra.
