Why Charge Per Minute of Raw Footage?
Clients often want fixed prices, but quoting blindly can lead to underpaying yourself. Charging per minute of Raw Footage protects you from clients who send 10 hours of video for a 2-minute final cut.
Speed Benchmark: A standard YouTube edit (cuts, basic color, sound) usually takes 1 hour per 15-20 minutes of raw footage. Heavy VFX or multicam sequences can drop this to 1 hour per 5 minutes. Always adjust your “Editing Speed” based on the project’s complexity.
