I’m Hiring a Videographer, Who Do You Recommend?

June 8, 2011 5

Calling all Videographers! I have raw footage. About 2.5 hours worth from my last Digital Media Dinners Event. The raw file size is 84G and the format is Apple ProRes 422, it’s ready to be edited and converted into something professional, fun and awesome that I can use as a marketing tool for future events.

Here’s what I need:

  • You to have an external hard drive or some method to receive footage
  • 2 minute commercial style video for Digital Media Dinners
  • 5-6 minute documentary style video with event footage and testimonials
  • Text added throughout various parts of the video
  • Intro and Exit for the Video
  • Voice over for parts of the video
  • Your professional opinion on creating the videos. I have an idea of what I’d like, but you’re the expert so I would love your insight.
  • Deadline: June 30th, 2011

Interested in submitting a proposal to work on this project? If so, please email me the following information. (If you don’t have everything on my list, no worries, email me what you have for consideration). Since I’d like the project done by the end of the month, I’m looking to get started immediately and move quickly!

  • Link to your website
  • Portfolio/ Sample videos preferably similar to what I’m asking for
  • Link to any referrals or references from previous clients. Your LinkedIn Profile works great for this too. (*Hint being social media savvy will get you points!)
  • Are you willing to do this on trade? Trade includes: Your logo on the video, marketing mentions throughout all my social networks, LinkedIn recommendation and referrals for your future clients. We can discuss further any other options that may better meet your needs so feel free to let me know what you’re looking for.
  • If you’re not open to trade, how much will you charge?

If you’re a student and would like to get experience,  but don’t necessarily have a profile built up yet, I would also love to consider you! You’ll have an opportunity to use the video in your portfolio, I’ll give you references and sign off for any school credit you may receive.

So friends, who do you recommend? Please send/share this posts since it details exactly what I need. Videographers, I look forward to hearing from you with your proposals and appreciate you taking the time to consider this project.

  1. Man, I wish knew about this a month ago. I just finished a videography class. I would love to practice with your video. I just need to get the Final Cut program.

      Hey Jen! I appreciate your interest. If you were to take on this project, how long do you think it would take to have the final product?

      • Hi Melodie, I don’t have the program to do the video. If I did, I would love to take a stab at it. If you are in a bind, let me know.
