THE QUESTION
Looking for a Videographer in Perth?
The right video partner ultimately depends on what you're trying to create and how important the finished video is to your business.
For a simple shoot, an experienced freelance videographer may be exactly what you need. If you already know what you want filmed and simply need someone with the skills and equipment to capture it, a freelancer can be a great option.
If you're looking to grow your business, create multiple pieces of content or a more involved production, that's where a video production company can add more value. From helping you determine exactly what videos you need to make to achieve your marketing goals, planning the entire shoot for you, having a multi person crew, filming interviews across multiple locations, and producing several videos as part of a package, having a production team behind the project can make a significant difference.
WHO DOES WHAT
Freelance Videographer or Video Production Team?
There are great reasons to choose both! It ultimately depends on what you need for your project.
A production team typically includes:
Freelance Videographer
A freelance videographer can be a great option when you need a relatively straightforward production and want one person to handle everything from start to finish.
They can be well suited to:
Straightforward filming
Events
Interviews
Smaller brand projects
Social media content
The other major advantage is price. Of course, a freelancer will generally cost less than a multi person video production team.
But you're also relying on one persons experience, equipment, availability and ability to handle every part of the production.
Video Production Team
A production company brings multiple specialists together to execute exactly what you need. Depending on whats required that can mean:
And as a result, every part of your project is handled by an expert focusing getting that exactly right for your business. That's particularly valuable when the video package contains multiple assets all designed to grow your business or achieve a particular marketing goal!
What Does a Videographer in Perth Cost?
COST
Freelance videographer pricing varies depending on experience, specialisation, equipment and demand.
As a guide you might see rates of approximately:
Half day: $600–$2,000
Full day: $1,000–$4,000
These aren't fixed market rates and the range is deliberately broad. A experienced specialist with professional equipment and a strong portfolio can charge considerably more than someone newer to the industry.
This is one of the things about comparing videographers: there isn't usually a standardised pricing structure.
A $1,000 quote and a $2,500 quote may look like they're competing for the job while the actual experience, equipment, production approach and finished result can be very different.
A production company will generally cost more than hiring a freelancer.
The question is whether the additional production capability creates value for your project.
BY PROJECT TYPE
What Are You Looking to Make?
The type of video you need could also influence who you hire.

ViewThe production requirements can be completely different between these projects. A two-hour filming job for media isn't the same production as a multi-location corporate campaign with interviews, drone footage, photography and several finished videos. That's where an experienced video production team can be more valuable.
Which is right for you
When a Freelance Videographer Makes Sense
A good freelance videographer can be a great choice.
If you need someone to film an interview, event, social media shoot or simple project paying for a large production team may not make sense.
You may already have the direction know exactly what you need filmed and simply need an experienced person with the right equipment to capture it.
In that situation a freelancer can offer an efficient solution.
When a Production Team Makes Sense
The value of a production company becomes clearer as the production becomes more complex.
You may benefit from a team when you need:
Pre-production: Someone managing the schedule, locations, interviews, shot planning and logistics. Creative direction: Someone thinking about the story, messaging and how the finished video needs to work as a marketing asset
Multiple crew: operating a more complex set up with multiple cameras, lighting, and audio.
Professional post-production: An editor shaping the footage, sound, colour, graphics and final story. Multiple deliverables: videos, social cut-downs, advertising versions, photography or other assets from the same production.
Capacity: filming days, tight deadlines or ongoing content without depending on one persons availability.
The difference isn't that a freelancer can't do these things. An experienced freelancer may be capable of handling a large production.
The difference is in what capability you want for your project.
WHY LPV
Why LP Visuals Is Different From a Typical Videographer
LP Visuals is a team of than 10+ production professionals rather than a single videographer. That means we can build the production around the project of trying to make every project fit one persons capabilities.
We offer strategy as part of every video package
A creative director / producer to manage the story
A videographer can focus on camera, lighting and capturing the footage
An editor can focus on turning that footage into your final assets
Plus additional crew can be brought in when the production requires it, or if someone is unavailable. That becomes particularly valuable when you're investing money into the finished video and need the production to be handled properly from planning through to delivery.
The Real Cost of a Videographer
Ultimately, the decision comes down to what your project needs and the result you want to achieve.
If you need a simple shoot, a freelance videographer may be the right choice. If the project requires more creative input, production support, crew or post-production, a production company may offer much more value. You also need to consider how important this marketing tool is for your business and who you trust to execute it.
Choose the level of production that makes sense for your project — not simply the cheapest day rate - but the partner who creates the value and business outcome you're after.
