Re: [videoblogging] What is online video worth - contract info
From my research, you can expect $1000-$400 per video for an online deal related to just one region (country ie not listing your videos on competitors sites.)

[videoblogging] What is online video worth - contract info
Hi I have a hypothetical question the wise heads here may be able to answer. Lets say you travel around your country, producing short videos at different locations. Lets say, market research (youtube) show that your concept is extremely popular. Lets say a local tv station contact you and want exclusive rights to your videos, in your country, for one year, to list on there online site. This means you can't list your videos on local sites that they see as competition (other tv station sites, newspaper sites) Lets say they ask you to name your price. If you have produced these videos with your own funds, and know that to do them commercially would cost anything from $1500-$3000 per video WHAT DO YOU CHARGE THE TV STATION TO LIST YOUR VIDEOS EXCLUSIVELY ON THEIR SITE IN YOUR COUNTRY? Do you charge all of what it would cost to make them commercially? Or do you take into consideration the advertising revenue they may make from your content over a year, and charge more...or less? Or does one take into account that, due to this tv station being the biggest in your country, the publicity in itself, will be beneficial to your brand Where is online video at? Can we get the money that we charge to do commercial work? I really need to know...and soon...hypothetically :)
RE: [videoblogging] What is online video worth - contract info
I would do the following: Charge for less than what it will cost them to produce it on their own, and push for a lot of ads and awareness for your brand. This way I is not worth for them to produce it on their own and you promote your brand. You might be able to get some of their ads money, but you risk losing the deal. *sent from handheld Kfir Pravda -Original Message- From: caminofilm [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: videoblogging@yahoogroups.com Sent: 04-Oct-07 8:34 Subject: [videoblogging] What is online video worth - contract info Hi I have a hypothetical question the wise heads here may be able to answer.

RE: [videoblogging] What is online video worth - contract info
thanks kfir for your reply Hypothetically speaking, they are keen to see me happy, to continue providing them content. It really is a matter of having some idea of how much money they envisage making over the year nesting ads with my content. But you are right, they are the biggest TV station in the country, the publicity for my brand will be huge!

RE: [videoblogging] What is online video worth - contract info
As long as you limit the deal for a year, you can always open it and change the terms later. Assuming that they will make money from your videos, next round you can improve your position. There is another option - maybe now you can ask more money, if they are very eager to get your content. Only you know the answer, cause you are sitting with them and look them in the eye. With the information you provided, I'd go with my first option. *sent from handheld Kfir Pravda -Original Message- From: Mark Shea [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: videoblogging@yahoogroups.com Sent: 04-Oct-07 9:51 Subject: RE: [videoblogging] What is online video worth - contract info thanks kfir for your reply Hypothetically speaking, they are keen to see me happy, to continue providing them content.

Re: [videoblogging] What is online video worth - contract info
Are they asking you to get EO (Error and Omission) insurance? What other costs might you have to deliver your content to them? Be sure to factor that in — EO costs a lot of $$$. Or better, insist they cover the EO / liabilities (for things like someone suing 'cause your video about dating features a guy who was cheating on his wife and his wife left him so now he blames your video...TV lawyers spend years dreaming up such crazy liabilities) jen Jen Simmons http://milkweedmediadesign.com Yahoo!

Re: [videoblogging] What is online video worth - contract info
I have release forms for all interviewees and music used, but yes, things change, places close. If someone visits a place I recommend, and it is now closed, this could be an issue, but my hypothetical country isnt the USA, and (as yet) our legal system hasnt gone liability crazy, but it is interesting to see certain 'public places' restrict filming after Sept 11, and any filming done in a National Park (without permit) can incur a jail sentence or hefty fine Jen Simmons [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Are they asking you to get EO (Error and Omission) insurance?
