Thank you everyone, it has been very helpful. luka kito

Hi, Say, it is in NY ( where i am located), and the format to be the highest quality format, uncompressed. Delivery to be on tape. so, if the facility can handle it, it should not be that much more to HD, but just extra for tapes? That sounds very good. In other words, if someone came to you as a 'client' and asked you to produce a 10m video that requires some story boarding, scripting, interviews, getting some historic video footage into HD, b-roll and compositing. And asks 'how much more do you charge if i want everything on HD?" Will you charge the same or more? - just to clarify, i am not the one who would be involved in this particular situation. Someone asked me if he choose to use HD for the project he is involved, if there is a premium or not in terms of production/post production cost, and he is trying to see if his budget would allow that or not. Apparently , he has worked with people on regular definition in the past, so he has some idea of the cost from that project. thanks Luka Kito

Hi, Compare to SD or DV production, how much more does a HD production would cost to clients in general? I know this is sort of a nonsensical question since there are many factors that can increase cost, but, say, if someone is to hire a production house ( pre, production, post prodcution all included as one) to make a 10 min. video to display in a museum. When all other things are equal, like travel, personnel cost, getting copyrighted material approval and so on, if the client want to go with HD not regular definition, what kind of cost increase does a client face? In general, how big of a difference does it make budget wise today from regular definition to a HD ? Thanks in advance Luka Kito
