Transparent Pricing · Boulder, Colorado

Film that earns its investment back.

No vague quotes. No surprise invoices. We believe you deserve to know what things cost before you ask, so here's how we think about investment, what shapes it, and what you're getting for it.

Pricing Philosophy

We don't do
cheap.
We do worth it.

Cheap video exists. It's everywhere. And for most brands, it shows. The problem isn't that it looks bad — it's that it does nothing. Watched once. Forgotten immediately. No inquiry generated. No trust built.

We make films that functions as a business asset, something that lives on your homepage for three years, opens every sales conversation, and builds the kind of trust no ad spend can buy. That's a different product than a day rate and a hard drive.

Investment here is scoped to outcome. We start with what you need the film to do, then work backward to what it costs to build something capable of doing it.

01
Scope drives cost, not time

We don't charge by the day. We price by what the project needs to accomplish the locations, deliverables, crew, and creative direction required to build something that actually works.

02
Proposals are detailed, not vague

You'll get a line-by-line breakdown before you sign anything. No "starting from" numbers that triple by the time you get to contract. What you see is what you pay.

03
One investment, multiple uses

Every project includes cut-downs for social, web, and paid media. One shoot day feeds your entire content ecosystem, homepage hero, Instagram, ad creative, email. The math usually makes sense fast.

Starting Points

Where most
projects begin.

What Affects Pricing

Six things that
shape the number.

01
Locations & Access

A rooftop in Denver costs less than a backcountry trail at 12,000 feet. Remote shoots require more logistics, more gear, and often more crew. We scout everything in person before quoting.

02
Number of Deliverables

One 90-second film is different from a full campaign with 12 cuts in three formats. More deliverables mean more edit time, more color work, and more back-and-forth — all of which affect the price.

03
Crew Size & Gear

Some shoots run lean — one shooter, minimal kit. Others need a team: grip, sound, drone, a second camera. Crew and equipment are quoted transparently in every proposal.

04
Talent & Permits

If your project requires hired talent, athletes, models, or location permits, those are factored into the scope. We manage all of it so you don't have to and it's never a surprise add-on after you've signed.

05
Travel & Logistics

We're based in Boulder and shoot locally, nationally, and internationally. Travel costs are quoted upfront and baked into the proposal, no per-diem surprises or invoice addendums three weeks later.

06
Timeline

Standard delivery is 10 business days from wrap. Rush timelines (under 5 days) are possible and priced accordingly. Build in time and the cost reflects that.

What You Get

Everything in.
Nothing hidden.

Every OFP project — regardless of scope — includes these as standard. No add-on fees for things that should just be included.

Director-led from day one

James runs every project personally — discovery, pre-production, shoot, and post. One point of contact, start to finish.

Detailed proposal upfront

Line-by-line breakdown of every cost before you sign. No vague estimates, no retroactive additions.

Multi-format delivery

Web, social, and broadcast cuts from every project. All formats, all aspect ratios, all file types. Ready to use on day one.

First cut in 10 days

From wrap to first cut in 10 business days. Two revision rounds built in. Finals delivered on the date we put on the calendar.

Full color & sound

Professional color grade, sound design, and licensed music, never an add-on.

In-person location scouting

We visit every location before shoot day. No surprises on set. No "we didn't know about the parking situation" at 5am.

Usage rights — yours forever

All footage and finished films are yours, outright, with full commercial usage rights. No licensing renewals, no restrictions.

Strategy session included

Every project starts with a strategy conversation, what the film needs to do, who it's for, and what success looks like. The brief is free. The thinking shapes everything.

Tell us what
you're building.
We'll be honest.

The best way to get an accurate number is a conversation, not a price list. Reach out with the project — we'll tell you exactly what it would take and whether it makes sense.
