The short answer: professional video production in Tulsa typically runs $3,500–$15,000 per project. At Intent Productions, projects start at $3,500, and you get a fixed quote — not an estimate that grows — within one business day.
Typical price ranges by project type
Every project is scoped individually, but after a decade of producing video in Tulsa, most work lands in predictable ranges:
| Project type | What it usually includes | Typical range |
|---|---|---|
| Customer testimonial / case study | Half-day shoot, one location, interview + b-roll, one edited video | $3,500–$7,000 |
| Recruiting video | Full-day shoot, employee interviews, facility footage, cutdowns for job posts | $4,500–$9,000 |
| Brand film / company story | Multi-day production, scripting, multiple locations, licensed music | $5,000–$12,000 |
| Fundraising / campaign video | Story development, interviews with staff and beneficiaries, event-ready edit | $4,000–$10,000 |
| Event coverage + recap | On-site crew, same-week highlight edit, social cutdowns | $3,500–$6,000 |
| Training / safety series | Scoped per module — series pricing brings the per-video cost down | Scoped per series |
Already have crews on site? Adding a half-day of extra capture while we’re there runs about $1,500 — the cheapest footage you’ll ever buy, because travel and setup are already paid for.
What actually drives the cost of a video
Five things move the number more than anything else: shoot days (crew, gear, and travel are the biggest line items), locations (each move costs setup time), scripting and story development (a scripted piece takes more pre-production than a documentary-style interview), editing scope (motion graphics, animation, and multiple versions add edit days), and licensing (music and usage rights for paid advertising). When you get quotes that vary wildly, it’s almost always because each company assumed a different mix of these — which is why we put every assumption in writing.
Why the $1,500 quote isn’t the same product
You can find someone in Tulsa to film and edit a video for $1,000–$2,000. What you’re buying there is a camera operator. What you’re buying at the professional level is the outcome: a video built around a business goal — filling a sales pipeline, recruiting a hard-to-hire role, raising funds — with the strategy, interviewing, story structure, and distribution planning that make it work. Most videos get watched once. Ours go to work. That difference is The Intent Method, and it’s why 84% of our revenue comes from clients who come back.
Need video every month?
If you need ongoing content — social video, a recruiting pipeline, a training library — a monthly plan is usually 20–30% cheaper than quoting each video separately, because planning and shoot days get shared across deliverables. Tell us what a quarter of content looks like for you and we’ll quote it both ways.
Common questions
Do you work with budgets under $3,500?
Our project minimum is $3,500. If your budget is below that, the monthly-plan route or adding your project to an existing shoot day sometimes gets you there — ask, and we’ll tell you honestly whether it’s a fit.
Is the quote really fixed?
Yes. We scope first, then quote. The number you approve is the number you pay — if we misjudged the effort, that’s on us, not you. Changes you request after approval are quoted separately before we do them.
Do nonprofits get different pricing?
Nonprofits get the same transparent scoping, and where a project supports a mission we care about, we look for ways to stretch the budget — often by combining a fundraising film and event coverage into one production.
How fast can you deliver?
Most single-video projects deliver 2–4 weeks after the shoot. Event recaps deliver same-week. Rush timelines are quoted as such — not surprised into the invoice.
