A corporate video quote template with the shoot already itemized.
A free corporate video quote template with the standard shoot built in: a lean crew, the working gear package, principal talent and voiceover, and a post section that includes captions. Fill in your rates, check your margin, and send a clean, itemized quote.
It quotes the way corporate work gets bought: clean prices and one total on the client version, your costs and margin in the producer view. Each line carries its own rate, so when procurement asks for a discount you can see what it costs you.

Questions
Units, tax, deposits and exports are covered in the Help guide.
For the longer answer, there’s a guide: What to Include in a Video Production Quote.
What does a corporate video quote include?
Seven sections built around the standard corporate shoot: pre-production, a lean crew, principal talent and voiceover, camera and lighting and audio packages, location fees, catering, and post-production with captions and deliverables. It's the interview-plus-b-roll day, itemized, with room to add lines.
How much does a corporate video cost?
Corporate video pricing usually starts at a few thousand dollars for a single-day interview shoot with a straightforward edit, and climbs past twenty thousand once you add shoot days, motion graphics, and more stakeholders. What moves the number is visible in the quote: crew day rates, gear, and post scope.
What's the difference between a quote and an estimate?
Convention, mostly. A quote reads as a firmer price; an estimate signals the number can move with scope. Both need the same thing underneath: real line items with real rates.
Can I put my company's branding on the quote?
The free plan's exports carry a small “Made with Estimatery” footer. Pro is a one-time purchase, not a subscription: your branding on client exports, no Estimatery footer, invoice exports, unlimited cloud saves, and a Saved Items catalog of your standard lines.
