YouTube Video Production Services for Founders: One Filming Day, a Month of Videos

We produce YouTube videos for founders and experts with high-ticket services. You film one day a month, in a studio, at your office or remotely. We do the pre-production, the filming direction, the editing, the packaging and the publishing.

What do you get from one filming day?

One day, usually two to four hours of recording, gives a month of content: four long videos for YouTube and about 20 Shorts cut from them for YouTube, Instagram, TikTok and LinkedIn.

One filming day gives four long videos, which give about twenty shorts

Why one day and not a little every day? Because founders don't have "a little time every day". They have one free day if it's booked in advance. Here's how batch filming works.

What results can you expect?

Honestly: the first months are an investment. Business channels usually have small view counts, and that's fine when the right people watch. Tvoy Sklad, a self-storage franchise we've worked with since 2022, raised about $5M with videos of 2,000 to 20,000 views. Ayuna films about two hours a month, and her channel gained 26,000 subscribers in 5 months.

Who is it for, and who is it not for?

It fits you if

  • You sell a high-ticket service, product or franchise.
  • You can give one day a month, but not a little every day.
  • You want to be known as the expert in your field.

It's not for you if

  • You want to become a full-time YouTuber or a faceless channel.
  • You want a promise of views. Nobody can honestly give one.
  • You only need editing. A freelance editor is cheaper; here's how to hire one.

Want the channel run around the videos too, with strategy, Shorts everywhere and tracking? That's YouTube channel management.

FAQ

What do YouTube video production services include?

At Evgeny Maximov's agency: topic research and a content plan, one-page scripts, a filming day with a producer behind the camera, editing of long videos and Shorts, thumbnails, titles and SEO, publishing on YouTube and other platforms, and monthly analytics.

How much do YouTube video production services cost?

Evgeny Maximov's agency starts from $3,000 a month for ongoing production and from $500 for one-off projects. The filming day (studio, camera operator, travel) is priced separately because it depends on your location.

How many videos can you produce from one filming day?

Usually four long videos in about three hours of recording, with breaks, which then give about 20 Shorts. Some founders record four long videos in two hours, others need two sessions at first; it gets faster with practice.

Do you film in my city?

We organize filming where it makes sense: a rented studio, your office or a site that shows your work. For founders abroad we also run remote sessions, where we direct the recording over a video call and you film with a phone or a simple setup.

How much of my time does YouTube production take?

About 14 hours a month: one filming day, short voice notes with ideas, a few minutes of feedback each week and a monthly strategy session. The first two months take more time while the style is set.

Do I need my own camera and equipment?

No. In a studio, the equipment comes with the room or the crew. For remote filming, a good phone, a wireless microphone and a soft light are enough, and we tell you exactly how to set them up.

What is the difference between YouTube production and channel management?

Production is making the videos: scripts, filming, editing, packaging. Channel management adds running the channel around them: strategy, publishing, Shorts on other platforms, analytics and the path from a video to a call. Most of our clients take both.

Can you produce a single video, like a VSL or a brand documentary?

Yes. One-off projects start from $500, depending on the format. A video sales letter, a channel trailer, a case study video or a mini documentary are common one-off projects.

Who owns the videos and the channel?

You do. The channel stays on your account, and we work with a manager or editor role in YouTube Studio that you can remove at any time. We never ask for your password.

What if I don't like the result?

Evgeny Maximov's agency offers a 7-day money back guarantee. It doesn't promise views or calls, because those depend on your offer and market.
