Prices are quoted as the studios publish them; scope, length and what is included differ. They are a guide, not an offer.
What drives the price?
- Filming days and crew. Each day on location means a camera operator, equipment, travel and often actors. In most quotes it is the largest item.
- Locations and length. More places and a longer film mean more filming and more editing.
- Pre- and post-production. Script, edit, grading, music, graphics and animation are billed separately or as a package.
- Voice, licences and languages. A professional voice, music licences and every extra language version add to the price.
- Number of versions. One film for the website, another cut for Instagram and a third for ads are three deliverables, not one.
What does an AI-made film without filming cost?
Our projects start at €1,100. We make short vertical film stories (9:16, 45 to 60 seconds) with voice and subtitles, with no filming: we write the story, check the facts and make the film with the latest technology, AI included. That removes the item that costs most in traditional production, the filming days. A film with a traditional crew often costs €10,000 and more.
How long does it take?
| Traditional crew | Our film without filming | |
|---|---|---|
| First draft | as agreed | a free script within 48 hours |
| Finished film | a month or more | within two weeks of script approval |
What does every project include?
Every project includes a script with sourced facts, two approval rounds (the script and the pre-final cut) and the right to use the film on your website and your own social channels, with no time or territory limit. We agree the scope and price of a specific project once you have seen the script.
When is a crew worth it, and when is a film without filming?
A crew makes sense when you need to capture real people and real events: an interview with your director, an event, a festival, production on your shop floor, or your site as it looks after a restoration.
A film without filming suits a story: the history of a place, a legend (always marked “according to tradition”), a figure from the past or the story of a brand. You need no new footage or photos.
Questions
Is the script really free?
Yes. We write the script for your film for free within 48 hours of your brief. You pay only after you approve the script.
What do several films cost?
We agree the scope and price of a series on a 15-minute call, once you have seen the script.
Why do market prices vary so much?
Each studio prices a different scope: one shoot day, or a whole campaign with actors and several locations. Compare what is included, not just the number.
Who writes the script if the film is made with AI?
A person. Every script is written by us, the facts are checked, and nothing goes out without your approval.
