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.

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 :)
