NRV normally sells DVD's directly to the dance studio so that they can sell the DVD's to their recital performers. The per unit price to the studio is normally between $17 to $22 for a 60-150 minute shoot with no money down and the studio/event is allowed a 25% price markup. Single camera shoots starting at $12 per unit. A minimum order of 20 units is what NRV usually looks for to reserve a shoot date and the order is delivered in mass to your studio so you can distribute it to your dancers.
