Campus B-Roll
Library Capture

$2,500–$3,500

A dedicated two-day production focused on building a versatile library of evergreen UTEP campus footage for use across future video projects.

  • Two full production days
  • Evergreen campus beauty shots, architecture, landmarks, student life, activities, and in-classroom footage
  • Pre-production shot planning
  • Drone/aerial footage of campus, weather and airspace permitting
  • Coverage across multiple campus areas and times of day
  • Organized and color-corrected footage delivery
  • Footage available for use across future UTEP video projects

A shared campus library reduces the need to recapture general campus footage for every recurring video.

03 / PRODUCTION NOTES

Designed around each story.

Each production is planned around the story, interview needs and locations involved. A typical production day allows for approximately 2 interviews while leaving time to capture supporting B-roll and other story-driven visuals.

Up to 3 interviews may be possible in a single day when schedules and locations allow, but this generally leaves limited time for additional B-roll capture. Projects with more extensive interview or B-roll needs may require an additional production day.

ADD.01

Additional Interview Session

$500Up to 3 consecutive hours on-site for one interview, including lighting and audio setup, filming, and breakdown. Does not include B-roll capture.
ADD.02

Additional B-Roll Capture Day

$700Up to 3 consecutive hours on-site for project-specific B-roll capture without interviews.
ADD.03

Additional Production Day,
Interviews + B-Roll

$1,500Up to 6 consecutive hours on-site, including equipment setup, interview filming, supporting B-roll, and breakdown.

Additional filming is scoped to the needs of each project. Dedicated campus library capture is detailed separately above.
