Pricing

  • For our Preservation Services, see our price lists for each type of service:

1. Audio   2. Video   3. Film   4. Photo

The flat, per-piece pricing of these services keeps the costs predictable, while allowing for special cases and optional services.  However, some highly customized preservation projects may require the pricing structure of a production, as described below.

  • The 3 costs in any Recording or Production Project are:
  1. Studio/Equipment Fee (all gear, hardware, and facilities needed for the job, per half or whole day.)
  2. Labor (hourly rate for all services performed.)

Project Planning and Budgeting
In order to assess the overall size & scope (and probable cost) of any project,
we must determine these 3 things:
1. what we are starting with (in terms of either materials for preservation work, or specific details if it’s a presentation or production)
2. what we aim to create as a finished product (again very specific about most foreseeable details)
3. what your priorities and preferences are (do you want the absolute best results obtainable, the bare minimum expense to get the job done, or something inbetween?)

Once we’ve accurately assessed of your starting point, end goals, and considered your best options and possibilities, we will follow the best course of action to get you optimal results, guaranteed.

Every project is different, so please call or email anytime to discuss your project.  Thanks!
