Rates & terms
What it costs
Every fee we charge is on this page.
By the hour
Priced by how many people are on the stage — crew, cast and clients, not just the ones on camera. 4-hour minimum.
Under 30 people, hourly usually comes in under the day rate — book the hours you actually need.
These are the dressed sets. The green screen stage is booked by the day; ask us for an hourly rate on it.
Full production day
12 hours, any crew size, air conditioning included. The set is yours for the day and comes off the calendar.
For crews of 30 and up the day rate beats hourly from about ten hours on — and it stops the clock mattering.
Add-ons
Cleaning
$150 flatCharged once per booking, not per day. It covers resetting the set after you wrap, so the next production walks into it the way you did.
Air conditioning
$15 / hrBilled only for the hours you run it, and included at no charge on full 12-hour days. You pay for AC when you want it on, not as a line baked into every booking.
DMX lighting grid
$300 / dayThe overhead grid is pre-hung and DMX-addressable. Cheaper than trucking a package in, and it saves you the rigging.

Real totals for one set, everything in. Budget from these — they are what the quote will say.
