    Default First editing job. How much to charge?

    Hi.
    I've just landed my first editing job and have been asked to quote a price, however I have no idea what to charge. I don't want to charge too much as to price myself out of a job but also I don't want to rip myself off!
    The job is some simple editing of seven 30 second clips and adding a bit of branding.

    COuld anyone suggest a ballpark figure that would be the norm for this type of work.

    Thanks for any help anyone can offer.

    Stuart.

    It sounds easy in theory, but like most video work from edit to final output, it will eat the hours up. £200 per day should be your min.
    My opinions are just that . . . Mine. It's not personal, but is based on my emotional and professional reaction to requested critique. If you choose to ignore constructive comments, I'll just assume you're a vanity poster and not posting to improve your filming and editing skills.
