FAQ

About Merged Content Creators

How long have you guys been making content?

We have been making video productions since 2014. Shortly thereafter we started complimenting our video productions with animation & 3D creations. Since 2021 we officially branded as Merged Content Creators. So by now you could say that we have gained a lot of experience in content creation!

Why should we choose Merged Content Creators?

We offer a full service experience at Merged Content Creators and are here to help you with every step of your content creation journey. We also have extensive filmmaking experience and have our own production studio space. Last but not least, we strive to make every production a good time for the whole team!

Are you also active outside the Netherlands?

Of course! At Merged Content Creators, we like to push the boundaries of our content. So expanding past the borders of our small cold country is something we love to do. In fact, we cross borders on a regular basis and can facilitate your content production needs all over the world!

Do you make animations as well?

Yes! It’s one of our favourite things to do! Check out our portfolio to see our animation work.

Do you shoot slow motion?

Is 1000 frames per second slow enough?? We shoot all sorts of slow motion projects & timelapse projects.

Can you also help with creating the script?

Yes! At Merged Content Creators we love guiding you through every step of the production process: from concept to the final result. That’s one less worry for you!

Do you provide camera gear on set?

Yes, we have a wide range of high quality cameras to choose from. That way we can pick the right camera for your project!

What is the price of a video production?

“How much does that cost?” That might be the first question that comes to mind when you hire a video production company. A completely understandable question! The costs of a video production depends on many factors. It mainly has to do with your wishes such as: the length of the video, the number of shooting days, and the labor intensity during the editing process. At Merged Content Creators, our video productions often start from a price of €1250,-. Whether your marketing budget is small or large, we are happy to work with you to workout a plan that fits your wishes and budget.

Do you charge travel expenses?

Yes, we charge €0.25/km for a production car and €0.35/km for our production bus, which we use to transport our equipment.

How do you plan your workdays? What counts as one shooting day?

We work on a half day or full day basis and therefore do not charge by the hour. A full day consists of 10 hours, including the time we spend travelling. Overtime hours worked beyond the 10 hour day is charged at 150% per hour. A half day of work consists of four hours, including the time we spend travelling.

How long does the editing usually take?

The amount of time we spend on your project depends greatly on your requirements and their complexity. As a rule, we take about two days of editing work if we have a one-day job. This applies to a video of about one minute. Animated and 3D work will take longer.

How much time does it take to make a video?

This depends on the specific wishes and requirements per project. In general, the earlier and better we are informed about a production, the more efficiently we can plan everything.

Can we reschedule if the weather is bad?

Yes, in case of bad weather we can decide to reschedule up to 24 hours before the shoot. Should you cancel the shoot within 24 hours, for whatever reason, we will have to charge a 50% cancellation fee on the production costs.

How high can your drone go?

A drone is allowed to fly at a maximum height of 120 meters above the ground. This may depend on the area where you are flying. The rules for flying a drone are set internationally and are constantly being adjusted. Basically, we can fly anywhere, but some areas may require additional permits. If this is the case, we will take care of the these permits for you!

In what format will the videos be delivered?

We deliver our videos in 4K image quality as a standard feature. If you wish, we can also deliver them in 6K or even 8K image quality! We can also deliver any file format you require.

Can I provide footage that my nephew shot for your production?

No.

How much feedback rounds can we get?

Two rounds of feedback are standard in all our quotes. However, should you require additional feedback rounds then this is definitely possible. We can come to an agreement for additional feedback in advance.

How many revisions are included in the project?

In our standard project agreement, we typically include a specified number of revisions to ensure that the final animation or video aligns seamlessly with your vision and requirements. The number of revisions can vary based on the complexity and scope of the project. Typically, we offer up to 2 rounds of revisions, allowing for feedback on elements such as animation sequences, visual aesthetics, and any other specific aspects outlined in the project brief.

What is the process for feedback and approval?

1. Initial Draft Presentation:

Can we get the raw footage?

We can make the raw footage available for you. This is only possible after consulting with us. Please note that we will charge an additional fee for this service.

Is the music in the video always license free?

Yes, the music that we use in our videos is always free of any rights. If you have specific sound requirements, we can make it happen with a sound designer.

Can one person do 2 cameras, audio and lighting at the same time?

Technically…. this is possible. However, this is now how we work. We assign each person to their area of expertise. By working like this, we can guarantee the quality of our productions.

What is our process for creating 3D animations?
