Video Rate Lab Makes the Math of Freelancing Visible
A free collection of pricing calculators, quoting frameworks, guides, and templates for videographers, editors, and small production teams.
Field notes
The calculators turn common production variables into visible pricing models rather than presenting an unexplained recommendation. The day-rate tool accounts for income targets, overhead, billable days, tax reserve, and margin, while other workflows address revisions, overtime, deposits, scope, equipment, and usage rights. The homepage connects each calculation to a guide or template, suggesting a sequence from benchmark to client-facing quote.
