Frequently Asked Questions

Mr. Camera was founded in Las Vegas in 1981 by Don and Becky Jacobs, and is now operated by their son Dan Jacobs. We've been producing professional video in Las Vegas for over 45 years — making us one of the longest-running production companies in the city.

We primarily serve enterprise clients — including Netflix, Live Nation, MGM Resorts, Ticketmaster, and Optum — along with national PR firms, corporate marketing teams, ad agencies, and broadcast networks filming in Las Vegas. Most of our work comes from long-term client relationships and referrals.

Las Vegas is our home base, but we regularly crew productions across Nevada, the Southwest, and nationally. Our contractor network allows us to assemble crews in most major markets when needed.

Submit a request through our contact form with your project type, date, location, and objectives. We turn around most quotes within 24 hours — same day for urgent productions.

Production costs vary based on crew size, shoot days, equipment, and post-production complexity. A single-camera ENG day typically starts around $1,500–$2,500. Multi-camera event productions and full commercial packages are quoted individually. We provide detailed line-item estimates — no surprises.

For large multi-camera events or commercial productions, 2–4 weeks is ideal. That said, we handle same-day and next-day bookings regularly for ENG crews and smaller productions. For urgent needs, call us directly.

For larger productions, we typically require a deposit to hold the date and crew. Terms are outlined clearly in our production agreement and discussed before any contract is signed.

Our primary cameras are the Sony FX9 and FX6 — professional cinema cameras used across broadcast, commercial, and corporate productions. We own our gear, so there are no rental surprises or last-minute substitutions.
