Videography in Tallaght

If your video includes aerial footage, yes — commercial drone flying requires a licensed/certified operator in most countries, plus insurance and airspace permissions. Don't let someone fly a drone for paid work without the right certification; it's a legal and safety risk.

Clarify this in writing. Usually the videographer licenses the final edit to you for agreed uses, and raw footage is extra or retained. If you need full ownership or broad usage rights (ads, broadcast), say so up front — it affects price and the contract.

Shoot time, crew size, equipment (cameras, audio, lighting, drone if used), number of edited deliverables and their length, revision rounds, music licensing, usage rights, and delivery format and timeline. A one-line day rate with no deliverable spec is a red flag.

Because it's where most of the hours go. A day of filming can take several days to edit — cutting, colour grading, sound, motion graphics and revisions. When comparing quotes, check how much edited footage you get and how many revision rounds are included, not just the shoot day rate.

In Tallaght, a half-day shoot sits around the national entry rate while a full corporate production with a crew and edit runs several times higher. Travel, extra cameras and turnaround speed all move the price.

It scales with crew, kit and post-production. A half-day single-videographer event shoot is the entry point; a full day costs more; a scripted corporate or promo video with a crew, multi-camera setup and edited deliverable is the top of the range. Editing time is often a large, separate part of the bill.

In Tallaght, watch full sample videos (not just showreels) in your style, confirm deliverables and revision rounds in writing, check insurance and drone certification if needed, and agree usage rights before booking. Judge editing quality as hard as camera work.

Half-day shoots typically run €400-€1,600, full days €800-€2,800, and corporate videos €2,000-€11,000.
