If you're basing this on the question of....what should someone be paid to either film or edit a project, that's quite different than when referring to the entire element simply because when running a real business, and I'm stating real because many folks don't seem to have a clue of what they're doing, there are many more factors than just filming and editing...thus, I can't give you any numbers based on those two categories by themselves, as I also factor in the time spent emailing the client, making phone calls to the client, doing all of the artwork and other things, going to my stockroom and getting cases and such and remedial office-related things associated with the particular project...it all adds up, and when looking at the business expenses to that of what it really takes in terms of time to complete a project, it's really not so simplistic between just filming and editing. I know that doesn't answer your inquire directly, but what can I say!
Oh, and if were to base it on a 25% ratio between filming and 75% editing, with a cost of, say, $2000, then $500 filming, $1500 editing......I state that solely based on my original post.
