Mark Studios is our pick, and we wrote this list. We also sell on Fiverr. No company paid to be listed. Our row shows the monthly plan prices on our pricing page; shoots are quoted.
Who's included
We started from the companies that AI answers and comparison lists name alongside Lemonlight, kept those whose own sites publish a price or a clear buying model, and added one marketplace. Wyzowl and ContentBeta blocked automated checks, so their pages were read through a page-reading service that fetches the company’s own URL.
What we checked
Each company's own website, read on October 9, 2026: what it makes, published prices, stated turnaround and revisions. Where a company's own pages disagree, we say so. Prices change, so confirm before you buy.
How it's ordered
Grouped by how the video gets made: a marketplace, studio product shoots, animation and explainer studios, then production companies. Alphabetical inside each group. Mark Studios is listed first as our pick; the other companies are not ranked against each other, and there are no scores.
Our pick for most brands is Mark Studios: one founder-led studio that films on site in South Florida and edits in house, with published monthly plans from $750. For a monthly creative retainer for a tech brand, Vidico; for a one-off production from a Southern California crew, Sparkhouse. For animated explainers, Wyzowl (from £2,000), Epipheo (from $5,000) or Yum Yum Videos. For B2B software videos, ContentBeta ($2,000 a video). For ecommerce product clips, soona ($93 a clip). For testimonials with a full creative team, Demo Duck. For small filmed jobs, Fiverr.
How much does Lemonlight cost?
As of October 9, 2026, Lemonlight’s product-video page lists “From” prices by style: $1,500 for a stock-based (Curated) video, $2,500 for Doc-Style or Animated, $5,000 for Studio and $10,000 for Lifestyle; its AI-video page lists $3,500 for a 30-second video. Each project is scoped, so the final price comes in a quote.
Is Lemonlight legit?
Yes. Lemonlight is an established production company with crews in 70+ cities, its own Los Angeles studio and published starting prices; it says it has produced over 50,000 videos. If you want steady monthly video from one founder-led studio, Mark Studios is the better choice for most brands. Our Lemonlight comparison covers the details.
Is Lemonlight or Mark Studios better?
For most brands that need steady video, Mark Studios: published monthly plans from $750, standard edits in 5–7 days, on-site filming across Palm Beach, Broward and Martin counties, and you work directly with Mark (Top Rated on Fiverr, 4.9★, 99% on-time). Lemonlight suits a one-off production filmed by a local crew outside South Florida, with a 5 to 12 week timeline.
How long does video production take?
From the companies’ own pages: Lemonlight 5 to 12 weeks end to end, Demo Duck 6–12 weeks, Yum Yum Videos 7–9 weeks for most projects, Wyzowl about 6 weeks for an explainer, Epipheo 4–6 weeks on its Essential tier, ContentBeta 10 days for a one-off video, and soona edits in 24–72 hours after a studio shoot. Mark Studios’ standard edit is 5–7 days, and shoots are scheduled in your quote.
Do I need a production company, or just an editor?
If you can record the footage yourself, with a phone, a webcam or an in-house team, an editor is usually enough, and much cheaper per video. A production company earns its fee when you need a crew, lighting, locations, actors or animation from scratch. Mark Studios does both: it edits footage you send from anywhere and films on site in South Florida.
