What is the cheapest way to get professional video in Dallas?

A single-purpose starter reel. At JML Tech Studios these begin at $99 — one location, tight scope, fast turnaround. It won't replace a brand film, but it gets a real, professionally shot and edited asset on your social channels this week instead of never.

How much does a corporate video cost in Dallas?

Nationally, corporate video runs about $1,000 to $10,000 per finished minute depending on crew, talent, and post-production. In Dallas, a solid single-day corporate shoot typically lands between $500 and $1,500 for production, with fuller multi-day brand pieces climbing from there.

Why do video quotes vary so much between companies?

Because you're not buying 'a video' — you're buying crew hours, gear, locations, licensed music, editing time, and revision rounds. Two quotes for the same brief can differ 5x based on crew size and post-production depth alone. Always compare what's included, not just the bottom number.

Is a monthly video retainer worth it for a small business?

If you need content more than a few times a year, usually yes. Retainers (from $2,500/month at JML) spread fixed costs — planning, setup, brand templates — across many deliverables, typically cutting per-video cost 30–40% versus booking one-off projects each time.
