The Same Crew, Wherever the Shoot Is

Most companies that claim statewide Colorado coverage are booking networks. With them you hire a name, and a freelancer you have never spoken to shows up at your venue. It works until it does not, and you find out which on the day of your event.

Autumn Leaves Video Productions is one crew based in Denver. The people who scope your project are the people who show up on site, which matters most on multi-day events.

We have filmed across Colorado since 2015 for organizations including Google and the Lowe’s Foundation, and we travel nationwide when the project calls for it. Fully insured, certificates available for any venue that requires one.

Where We Film in Colorado

Four regions, one crew, one quote. Cities with a link have their own page covering what is specific about filming there.

Denver Metro & Front Range

Our home base and the bulk of our work. No travel line on the quote.

Denver, Aurora, Boulder, Lakewood, Littleton, Golden, Castle Rock, Centennial, Arvada, Westminster

Northern Colorado

An easy drive up I-25. Same-day work, no overnight needed.

Fort Collins, Loveland, Greeley, Longmont, Windsor, Estes Park, Berthoud

Southern Colorado

Regular territory, though airspace and permits get complicated down here due to the multiple military schools, training sites and bases in the area.

Colorado Springs, Monument, Pueblo, Fountain, Manitou Springs, Trinidad

Mountains & Western Slope

Resort conferences, retreats, and property work. Usually a travel day on one or both ends.

Vail, Beaver Creek, Breckenridge, Keystone, Winter Park, Steamboat Springs, Aspen, Crested Butte, Telluride, Durango, Grand Junction, Montrose

What We Produce

Conferences & Conventions

Multi-camera keynote and panel coverage, per-speaker session videos with slides cut in, and a highlight reel that sells next year’s tickets.

What Changes Once You Leave the Metro

Filming in Telluride is not filming in Denver with a longer drive. Three things actually change, and all three are planning problems rather than filming problems.

The Rules Change by City

Colorado has no statewide preemption on local drone ordinances, so every city and county layers its own rules on top of the federal ones. Boulder bans drone operation on Open Space and Mountain Parks land. Colorado Springs requires written consent plus a commercial film permit for city parks, and Garden of the Gods is tighter again. National parks prohibit drones outright.

We check the specific location and the calendar before the shoot date. That is also why we never promise aerial footage in advance, no matter how good the view is.

Altitude and Weather Are Schedule Problems

Afternoon storms are routine at elevation in summer, passes close in winter, and drones have less margin in thin air and wind. None of that is exotic, it just means the schedule needs slack in it.

We front-load the priority shots and keep a fallback for anything weather dependent, rather than scheduling the one irreplaceable shot for four in the afternoon in July.

Venues Want Paperwork

Resorts, convention centers, university buildings, and municipal film offices all have their own insurance wording. Some want the city named as additional insured, some want the venue, some want both and a specific coverage minimum.

Send us their exact requirements as early as you can. This is the item most likely to hold up a shoot, and it is entirely avoidable with some notice.

How Travel Gets Quoted

Travel is its own line on the quote. You should be able to see exactly what the distance is costing you, and decide whether a different date or a fuller shot list makes the trip worth it.

For single day work filming along the Front Range from Fort Collins down to Colorado Springs is normally a same-day drive with no overnight. Mountain towns and the Western Slope usually need lodging and a travel day on one or both ends, and we say so during scoping rather than after you have signed.

Corporate, conference, and event work generally runs $800 to $4,000 per day for filming and post production work before travel, depending on the factors listed here. Payment is 50% at booking and 50% after filming.

What moves the number

  • Hours on site and number of days
  • Number of cameras and operators
  • Number of interviews or speakers
  • How many finished videos you need
  • Distance, lodging, and travel days
  • Drone coverage, plus any permit or authorization
  • Vertical social reels as an add on
  • Turnaround speed and delivery date

Weddings are the exception and do have published package pricing

How the Process Works

1

Contact & Quote

Tell us the date, the location, and what the video has to accomplish. We scope it, quote the travel separately, and build the interview question list with you before the shoot.

2

Production

Canon R5 Mark II cameras in 4K, with microphones and lighting chosen per project. Small crew, out of the way of the actual work.

3

Review & Delivery

Once final payment has been received you review the edit online and send revision notes. Final delivery is full-resolution files through a shared Google Drive link.

Colorado Video Production FAQ

How is travel billed for shoots outside the Denver metro?

Travel is itemized as its own line on the quote rather than buried in a day rate, so you can see exactly what the distance is costing you. Front Range work from Fort Collins to Colorado Springs is usually a same-day drive with no overnight. Mountain towns and the Western Slope often need lodging and a travel day on one or both ends, and we tell you that during scoping rather than after.

Yes. We are not a booking network that subcontracts your shoot to whoever is closest to the venue. The people who quote the project are the people who show up, which matters most on multi-day work where consistency between day one and day three is the whole point.

There is no fixed minimum, but the economics change once travel and lodging enter the quote. A two hour shoot four hours from Denver costs nearly what a full day costs, so if you are bringing us that far it is usually worth planning a fuller shot list, additional interviews, or a second deliverable while we are on site.

Significantly, and this catches people out. Colorado has no statewide preemption on local drone ordinances, so cities and counties layer their own rules on top of federal ones. Boulder prohibits drone operation on Open Space and Mountain Parks land. Colorado Springs requires written consent and a commercial film permit for city parks, with tighter limits again at Garden of the Gods. National parks prohibit drones outright. We check the specific location and the calendar before the shoot date, not the morning of.

Mostly it means building slack into the schedule. Afternoon storms are routine in summer at elevation, passes close in winter, and drones have less margin in thin air and wind. We plan the priority shots early in the day and keep a fallback for anything weather dependent, which is also why drone footage is never promised in advance.

There are no set packages, because a single interview and a three day conference do not need the same resources. Corporate, conference, and event work generally runs $800 to $4,000 per day for filming and post production depending on hours on site, number of cameras and operators, number of interviews, whether drone is involved, and how fast you need delivery. Travel is quoted separately and itemized. Weddings are the exception and do have published package pricing.

Yes. We film nationwide and have traveled for conference and corporate clients outside the state. Airfare, lodging, and ground travel are itemized on the quote the same way in-state travel is.

Autumn Leaves Video Productions is fully insured and a certificate of insurance naming your venue is available on request. Resorts, convention centers, university buildings, and city film permits each have their own requirements, so send us theirs as early as you can and we will have it handled before the shoot date.

Autumn Leaves Video came in totally prepared, understood our event objective clearly, captured fantastic video, went above and beyond in the edit, and had an incredible attitude from start to finish.
