Webcasting Rates
The price for Webcasting an event will vary depending upon the complexity of the production and length of the event. A basic outline in order to assist in budgeting is included below:
Production and Encoding
| Activity | Half Day | Three-quarter Day | Full Day |
|---|---|---|---|
| Two camera shoot | $3770 | $4625 | $5480 |
| Three camera shoot | $4510 | $5575 | $6640 |
| Four camera shoot | $5130 | $6365 | $7600 |
Note: Single camera requests require direct communication with the Webcasting group as they are not regularly supported by NUAMPS. We can advise of other video options for single camera shoots.
Half day shoot consists of up to 2.5 hours of program coverage and includes 3.5 hours of transportation/set-up/tear down time.
Three-quarter day shoot consists of up to 4.5 hours of program coverage and includes 4 hours of transportation/set-up/tear down time.
Full day shoot consists of up to 6.5 hours of program coverage and include 4.5 hours of transportation/set-up/tear down time.
The above estimates include cameras, video switcher, monitors, audio, video crew, encoding crew, crew transportation, NUIT webcasting fee, and one master DVD for NU archival purposes.
NUAMPS charges additional fees fir transportation outside the Evanston campu, additional audio equipment/wireless microphones for more than two speakers, and additional encoding for web use. An additional charge of $50 per camera per hour will be charged to capture individual camera video (if requested).
