Event Video of the ECJC event in Berlin
Recently, our talented event videographer captured a heartwarming event for the ECJC in Berlin. This special gathering marked the first time members had seen each other in several years due to the pandemic. The focus of our video was the sheer joy of reunion, capturing happy faces, heartfelt emotions, and the overall excitement of being together again.
The video highlights the laughter, warm embraces, and animated conversations among the members. By zooming in on these moments, the video not only preserves memories but also emphasizes the strong community bonds within the ECJC. This approach helps convey the event’s atmosphere in a vivid and engaging way.
Furthermore, the videographer used techniques that enhanced the emotional impact of the scenes. Slow-motion captures of smiles and quick cuts of enthusiastic greetings made the highlight reel not only a document of the event but a celebration of human connection.
This project showcases our ability to create compelling event videos that resonate with viewers. Whether it’s for corporate gatherings or nonprofit events, our videos capture the essence of each occasion.

Image Film Quality VS Budget
How much does an image film cost?
How much does an image film cost? What is the price for an image film? In a first inquiry or cost estimate for a new image film production, we often find that there are very different ideas about what services are necessary for a professional image film and what they cost.
So what exactly does the price depend on?
If you have no experience in making image films, then you have come to the right place: we at SeeSaw, are specialized in this, therefore, we provide a piece of very comprehensive support from the very first moment. We have been shooting commercial image videos (and other types of films) throughout Germany and worldwide for 8 years ( in Berlin, Hamburg, Cologne, Frankfurt, Paris, Lisbon, and Jerusalem) and, thanks to these successful video productions, we have a huge amount of know-how for all major industries and different clients. In preparation for your production, we also offer you our step-by-step concept template for your new image film production and price template for free download.
Prices and costs of image film
The price for an image film depends on how complex the film production is in terms of the number of shooting days and the experience and size of the film team. However, this scope also depends on how close and authentic the film reflects reality (for example, as reportage or documentary) or how artificially staged the film shows a fictional reality (scenic fictional film with actors, studio, glossy advertising production). Furthermore, additional services such as actors, travel expenses, location rentals, special filming technology (camera, light, drone) and elaborate post-production with many long interviews that have to be edited, animations (schematic 2D or photorealistic 3D), good, specially composed GEMA-free music and voice talents can influence the price.
Image film is a service and not a finished product. This means that there are few fixed costs, but the proportion of variable costs is very high, as the amount of individual labor and the technology used by a video production company depends on your goals. For example, how much does a three-minute corporate video cost? It is not that easy to say: it is possible to produce both a 10min film (like reportage or a documentary video production) and a 30sec film (like an elaborate commercial) with a budget of 10.000-15.000€. So the cost per film minute depends more on how much and how elaborate is to be seen in the film time. When calculating image films, three important cost points.

Prices and costs during conception: meetings and pre-visualizations.
The content of the film must be determined during pre-production. To do this, the first step is to prepare the film shoot as precisely as necessary and possible in the conceptual pre-production meetings, concept meetings, brainstorming sessions, treatments, competitor analyses, drafts of voiceover texts, and any drawn storyboards. Depending on the scope of the story, editorial research and preparatory work, we charge daily rates that are also common in other advertising and communications agencies. From the experience of 700 completed film productions, we try to make this process as structured and planned as possible. Together with the internal coordination (also up to the awarding of the contract), this phase often takes up the most extensive part in terms of time (not price).
This results in the staging and technical requirements for the film. After all, even before the film is started, it must be considered where and for whom it will ultimately be released. On the one hand, the use of a film has an impact on the conception, script, and visual language. On the other hand, it also has an impact on the actors’ fees, the license costs for the composer, and the buy-outs for voice-overs. Because: it makes a difference if a spot is advertised on TV or with a big budget on a social network (YouTube, LinkedIn, Facebook).
Film production process
In fact, it is only after this conception phase that it is known what costs will be incurred in the entire project. We therefore offer the conception separate from the film shooting and film editing. This means: if it is not yet clear to you which form the film production should take in terms of content and scope, it is also possible to first develop only this concept with us. At the end there will be a concrete film project description, which can then be handed over ( bid out) to other film production companies for realization. We can then define exactly on a technical, visual and organizational level which services must be provided by the production companies. If this information is not defined precisely enough in an invitation to quote or an inquiry, you may receive very different, i.e. non-comparable, offers. If you still want to know an approximate total price in the early production phase, we will be happy to offer you a basic calculation first, with which it is certainly possible to produce a good film.
