BLOCK · AUSTRALIA · TEN VIDEOS A MONTH
The Australia Block: Ten Videos a Month, from $70
A block is a fixed package of finished video: ten videos a month from $70 each (about AUD 101.50), authored for an Australian-English register and delivered in 24–48h with nothing on the file but your brand. Volume takes the per-video price below that; complex work takes it higher.

What you get
Australian-English register — spelling, idiom and voice written for Sydney and Melbourne, not adapted from US copy
The local details that sell — AUD pricing, correct GST rounding and a named local carrier where the creative needs one
Three formats from one brief — 9:16, 1:1 and 16:9, plus a silent-safe cut for feed autoplay
No supplier marks — no watermark, no end card, nothing in the file, the naming or the metadata that is not yours
NDA and named-client exclusivity — if you name a client to us, we do not pitch them, now or later
Why a block, rather than a hire or a per-project quote
Australian agencies pay AUD $80–150 an hour for local video editors, if they can find one, while retainers still assume 2019 prices. A standard 2026 social retainer implies 20 to 40 deliverables a month, and the gap between that and a fixed production cost comes out of the agency every month.
A block turns that fixed cost into a variable one. Ten videos a month at the base rate is a fixed monthly figure against a salary line that does not move when the calendar empties. The capacity appears without a recruiter, a notice period or a desk. In a quiet month the cost is zero, not a salary.
The trade is capacity, not judgement. NNI writes and produces; you keep the brief, the review pass, the brand and the client relationship. That review pass is what is actually being paid for, because anybody can order a video and only you can decide it is good enough to carry your name.
In-house editor vs an AU block
| Traditional route | With NNI |
|---|
| Cost of ten videos | AUD 2,500–6,000 in editor time | From $700 (about AUD 1,015) |
| Local talent | Booked months ahead, two cities | No queue — capacity is not a person |
| Annual commitment | A salary plus on-costs | None — the block renews or does not |
| Time to first delivery | Weeks including notice | 24–48 hours from a complete brief |
| Quiet months | Full salary | Zero |

who you areNo effectbrand, agency or studio
There is no secret trade price and no buyer-type tier. Two published things move the number: volume, which discounts below the base rate, and complexity, which raises it toward $150 (SaaS and explainer work from $100). Quote the same scope and a brand, an agency and a studio all pay the same. A rate published for one kind of buyer and hidden from another is a rate that costs somebody their client.

Prices are in USD, invoiced per batch. How a batch prices: the ladder is marginal, so each video costs the rate for its position in the order — the first 19 at $70, the 20th to the 39th at $65, the 40th onward at $60. Your 20th video is therefore cheaper than your 19th, and ordering 20 never costs less than ordering 19. At base complexity: 10 videos $700, 20 videos $1,395, 30 videos $2,045, 40 videos $2,690, 60 videos $3,890. Complexity raises the number instead — SaaS and technology from $100, complex bespoke up to $150. GST at 10% is added where applicable; prices shown are net. Neither variable depends on who you are.
The invoice is in USD. Local-currency figures beside our rates are indicative conversions for orientation only — they are not the price, they are not contractual, and they move with the rate. Quoted at 1 USD ≈ AUD 1.45. Your invoice, and any quote you receive, is in US dollars at the rate on the day it is issued.
How it works
Step 1 — Send one brief
The intake form: brand rules, the product, the offer and the claim being made. The clock starts when the brief is complete, not when it is first mentioned.
Step 2 — We produce, you review
24–48 hours later the batch arrives in the aspect ratios you asked for, captions burned in, silent-safe version included. The QC pass takes about 15 minutes.
Step 3 — It arrives under your brand
No supplier marks on any file and no NNI name in the metadata. Publish it, run it, or hand it to your client as your own.
Questions, answered
What does the AU block cost?
Ten videos from $700 (about AUD 1,015), which is $70 a finished video at base complexity. Volume takes that down on the published ladder — $65 from the 20th video, $60 from the 40th — and heavier work raises it: SaaS and technical explainers from $100, complex bespoke up to $150. There is no retainer and no minimum beyond the block itself.
How do bulk discounts apply?
Marginally, per video, not as a discount off the whole order. Your first 19 videos are $70 each, the 20th through the 39th are $65, and every video from the 40th is $60. So a 19-video order is $1,330 and a 20-video order is $1,395: the twentieth video costs less than the nineteenth, and ordering 20 never costs less than ordering 19. At base complexity the totals run $700 for 10 videos, $1,395 for 20, $2,045 for 30, $2,690 for 40 and $3,890 for 60. Same rule for every buyer.
What pushes a video from $70 to $150?
Complexity, not who is ordering. At the $70 base: a 10-30 second product reel or UGC-style cut, one setup, captions burned in, two revision rounds. Toward $150: a 60-second narrative explainer with several setups, motion graphics, voice work, sound design and a heavier scene count — the kind of piece that carries a launch rather than a feed. SaaS and technology content starts at $100. Quote the same brief and a brand, an agency or a studio get the same figure.
Is there an agency or trade rate?
No buyer-type rate. One rate card covers everyone: volume discounts it and complexity raises it, both published, and both available to a brand, an agency or a studio on the same terms. A trade price that a studio's client can never see is a trade price that can end a relationship the day it is seen. Studios partner with us for capacity, unbranded delivery, NDA cover and named-client exclusivity — not for a private discount.
We are an agency. Will you approach our clients?
No. If you name a client to us, we do not pitch them, we do not accept work directly from them, and we do not contact them at all. That commitment is worth more than a discount, so it is not conditional on volume.
What does a really large batch cost?
From 80 videos a batch we quote, on the same rules as everything else — same scope, same number, whoever is ordering. The quote covers two things only: the volume, whose marginal rate is $60 a video by then, and the complexity mix. For scale, at base complexity 80 videos is $5,090 and 80 sixty-second narrative explainers at the $150 ceiling would be $12,000. The rung is published so nobody has to wonder whether a big order gets a special price. It does not — it gets the published one.
