FAQs

What does a video cost?

This is the big question! Mensch is 100% transparent with its pricing. Every production is different, but to give you a clear idea, a full-service video project (which include strategy, shooting, and post-production) generally start from around 4,000€.

More complex productions, like multi-day international shoots, cinematic commercials, or projects with heavy VFX, will scale from there. Our bespoke project teams are masters at creatively scaling a concept to fit your scope and will provide a detailed, line-item quote after a discovery call.

Where are you based?

Mensch is a Berlin-registerd video production agency with a global footprint. Our creative independent partner teams are on the ground in Berlin, New York, Dubai, Madrid, Paris, Nairobi, Mumbai, São Paulo, Johannesburg, Lagos and many other international cities, allowing us to put together custom project teams with local expertise. Mensch can activate our partners on short notice, making fast-moving projects possible.

Do you only handle the full production?

Not at all. While Mensch loves end-to-end video production and is often brought in as specialist creative partner for a specific job than can provide 'a la carte' services, including:

  • Post-Production Only (expert video editing, cinematic color grading, sound design)

  • High-End Motion Design (2D & 3D animation, VFX)

  • Production Services (providing a top-tier Berlin video crew or global crew for your concept)

  • Creative Development (scripting, storyboarding, concepting)

Can you handle urgent, short-notice projects?

Yes. This is one of Mensch’s core strengths. As an agency with a vast network of independent global partners, Mensch is agile and built for speed. While Mensch loves having time to plan it can also help deploy full video production teams on very short notice for urgent projects. If you have an 'impossible' timeline, give us a call.

Up your game: How to boost the creative process and end result?

Believe it or not, there's a single step you can take to significantly improve the outcome of your video. Brace yourself for the big reveal: it's writing an exceptional brief. 

You might be thinking, "Piece of cake, I know how to brief!" But hold on – research begs to differ. A landmark study involving over 1,700 marketers from 70 countries unveiled some astonishing findings:

  • "80% of clients believe they write good briefs, yet only 10% of agencies concur."

  • "33% of every marketing budget evaporates due to poor briefs and misdirected work."

So, why not partner with Mensch? We'll work together to develop your brief with the depth and precision required to achieve a truly exceptional result. Let's join forces and create something extraordinary!

What kinds of post-production and motion design do you do?

Mensch is a post-production powerhouse. Our independent editors and motion design partners are experts in 2D & 3D animation, complex visual effects (VFX), cinematic color grading, and sound design. Depending on your needs, Mensch puts together the right project team for you that can handle everything from slick logo animations and data visualizations to full-scale animated brand films.

Revisions at every step: How do you handle feedback during video production?

Collaboration is key in creating the perfect video. That's why Mensch will check your pulse and invite you for feedback at multiple checkpoints throughout the production timeline, from scripting to storyboarding to editing and post-producing.  Our goal is to ensure that we're on the same page and that the final product reflects your vision. We'll make any necessary adjustments along the way to strike the right balance between our expertise and your unique perspective. Together, let's craft a standout video!
