SOLUTION

Event films that leave an impression.

When people think of event films, they often think of a highlight reel that preserves the event for posterity. For us, the focus is on ensuring the highlight film does justice to your event, capturing it in a way that helps you and your guests remember those moments in the best possible light.

But event films are also an emotional way to draw attention to your event. You can announce your event in style with a teaser or trailer. It’s a fantastic medium for social media to increase your event’s reach or build anticipation among your attendees.

If your event itself requires film, we naturally tailor the creative work to your event concept so that the films optimally support your event and integrate seamlessly into your event design. The possibilities are as diverse as the events themselves. Whether it’s a powerful opening video, tribute films, award videos, animated backgrounds, or whatever else you might want for your event—we produce the event films that are the perfect fit for you.

How much does it cost to produce an event film?

The cost of your event film varies depending on the scope, complexity, and your individual requirements – at Panda Pictures, you can count on transparent and budget-friendly pricing. A typical event film – whether an emotional teaser for your announcement, a dynamic highlight video with live recording, or a social media trailer – starts at around €2,500 for compact projects and goes up to €15,000 or more for elaborate productions with animations, drone footage, and multilingual versions.

Factors that influence the cost of your event film:

  • Shoot duration & team size: A half-day shoot with a small team (cameraman, sound technician) is more cost-effective than a full-day event with multiple cameras and live editing, or capturing multi-day events with several camera crews simultaneously. We provide flat-rate quotes that include preparation, filming, and post-production.
  • Technical extras: Simple highlight videos without effects keep costs down, while specialized equipment such as drones or camera cranes, color grading or professional motion graphics increase the price – perfectly tailored for your awards ceremony or company anniversary.
  • ‍Additional services: Social media teasers as a bonus (starting at €500) or on-site quick-turnaround editing add minimal costs but significantly boost your event's reach.
  • Recurring events: For your regular trade fairs or conferences, we offer discounts or annual packages starting at €10,000.

How long does it take to produce your event film?

Speed determines whether the energy of your event continues to resonate – at Panda Pictures, we focus on maximum turnaround speed, ensuring your highlight film, teaser, or social media content is ready for use immediately. From the initial inquiry to final delivery, our process takes 2–4 weeks – though a short teaser can be ready in 24 hours online, a complete aftermovie in 3–7 days.

Your flexible schedule – always tailored to your event:

  • Preparation (1–2 days): A quick sync via call or email: Which moments matter most? Which platforms (Instagram, LinkedIn, YouTube)? No back-and-forth – we get started right away.
  • Filming (Your event day): Whether it's one camera for intimate moments or several simultaneously for large stages – we are on-site, flexible, and unobtrusive.
  • Post-production (1–14 days): Editing begins immediately after the final shot. Thanks to parallel workflows (multiple editors working at once), we scale the speed to meet your needs – from a single reel to a full-length highlight film.

Express options for maximum speed:

  • Live editing On-site (live cut): During the event we edit in parallel – so you have the same evening a 60-second highlight trailer for social media or the closing presentation.
  • Same-day delivery: Within 6–12 hours after the event ends: finished reels, stories, or a short aftermovie – ideal for press, sponsors, or internal communications.
  • Multi-day events: Daily social media content (e.g., one reel per day) + a major wrap-up film at the end – everything produced in parallel, nothing gets lost.
  • 24/48-hour finish: Complete 2–3 minute highlight film the next day or the day after – perfect for viral follow-up.

Whether single-camera documentation, multicam live production or daily output for festivals – we adapt our speed to your deadline. Many clients use this combination: live trailer in the evening + final film in 3 days. Contact us and we’ll show you how your event film can go viral while the applause is still ringing!
