Three tiers. Flat fees. A public floor.
We do not bill by the hour, and we do not surprise you with a change order. Most launches close at one of these three numbers, and you can read all three right now, before you ever get on a call with us.
- Direction first. AI second.
- C2PA provenance in every cut.
- Named talent for every face.
- Your raw, your composite, your master.
Every tier ships on Emissary Stack, our hybrid studio pipeline. The tools change by project. The audit trail does not.
Executive Sizzle
The Tactical Wedge
$15K to $25K
- For
- Product marketers who need a premium asset on a deadline.
- What you get
- A 60-second cinematic asset with 3D-grade visual quality, built to make one product or one moment look like the category leader’s.
- Why it is a no-brainer
- A traditional 2D motion graphic costs about the same and looks like every other SaaS video in the feed. This does not.
- Timeline
- 48 to 72 hours

Plan a sizzleFlagship Launch Film
The Disruptor
$40K
- For
- Series B+ cybersecurity, AI infrastructure, and enterprise SaaS. The launch or funding announcement the whole company is built around.
- What you get
- A 90 to 120 second flagship narrative that blends live-action capture with 8K AI-composited environments. The film your CMO forwards to the board.
- Why it is a no-brainer
- The same authority costs $85K to $150K with a traditional crew, or $125K to $250K on an LED volume. You pay $40K because we moved the heavy lifting into post, not onto your invoice.
- Timeline
- 7 to 10 days

The Event Budget Interceptor
$60K and up
- For
- The CRO, VP Sales, or CFO rebuilding the SKO or the user conference.
- What you get
- AI-composited product films, architectural explainers, a keynote opener, and a sales-enablement library, scoped as one system instead of ten line items.
- Why it is a no-brainer
- A physical SKO for 200 reps burns $500K to $800K and is half-forgotten in a fortnight. Reallocate 15% of it and you own a sales-enablement engine that works all year.

Plan an eventAdd-ons.
Onsite Hybrid Add-On. +$8K to $15K.
A lighting pro on site for the shoot, when the moment calls for a crew in the room.
Emissary Studio On Tap.
A retainer: four launch-grade films a year plus the supporting cutdowns, by quote. For the brand that ships more than once.
Conference and event programs.
Event programs scope by attendee count, AV partner mix, and venue. The fee-only band for cinematic content runs $50-250K+; full-program totals run higher when we package AV / production-partner costs (often $50-300K including AV).
Pricing questions, answered.
- Who is this for?
- Marketing and brand leaders at Series B and later cybersecurity, AI infrastructure, and enterprise SaaS. If you own a launch, a category moment, or a flagship stage event, these tiers are built for you. If you are pre-funding or shopping for the cheapest video for the website, we are honestly not your studio. Learn more
- What is the floor, and why is it $15K?
- Fifteen thousand dollars is the lowest number at which we will still deliver cinematic-grade craft. Below it, the math forces the corners that make a film look cheap, and a cheap film does more damage to a Series B brand than no film at all. The floor is a quality guarantee, not a paywall.
- What does AI-hybrid cost versus an LED volume or a traditional crew?
- A Flagship Launch Film is a flat $40K. The same film runs $85K to $150K with a full live-action crew, or $125K to $250K on an LED volume, once you count logistics, travel, and stage rental. Same visual authority, roughly a third of the price, because the craft lives in post. Learn more
- Can we do equity instead of cash?
- For the right Series B+ company, sometimes. We carry a small appetite for partial equity in lieu of fee when the brand and the round are a fit. Ask on the fit call. The default is cash.
- What about IP rights and AI legal risk?
- Full IP assignment is the default. All raw footage, composited assets, and final deliverables transfer to you, and we retain zero data after delivery. Every face on screen carries a signed named-talent agreement, and every cut ships with C2PA provenance embedded. Learn more
