I've never shot one before, but we've been hired to shoot one
for the local junior college's continuing ed dance program, and
we're starting small at $16 per tape. The videotapes are a
fund raiser for them, so we wanted to make sure they could do
just that...also, we're picking up where someone who did a VERY
poor job left off. Be very careful how you shoot dance recitals...
we're using a two-camera setup, like we would for a wedding--
one getting the 'big picture' and one getting the close-up shots.
Then we'll edit...
What we did to ensure we'd get this job is to shoot a rehearsal,
edit it beautifully (my partner gets full credit on that end of
it--I'm mean it turned out amazing!), and then let the dance
students and their parents watch the next week at class--they
all pre-ordered tapes (the dance instructor said she saw some of
the parents in tears after they watched our rehearsal demo video!).
By keeping the cost as low as we can, we'll get the job again in
the future...
: Anyone shooting dance recitals? How do you determine cost?
