videographer in Bogotá
Need a videographer in Bogotá who shoots and hands everything off? Sheligo is a camera operator service for productions that already have post covered. Producers, agencies, brands and clinics marketing in English book us when they need cinema-grade images in Colombia without flying in a full crew.
You get the original camera files, untouched: RAW or log, with separate audio, organized and ready for your editor, colorist or DIT back home. Turnaround is fast, and we lock the exact handoff time before we roll.
We're based in north Bogotá and work on location: offices, clinics, restaurants, streets, sets. We travel anywhere in Colombia. Shooting for a clinic, a restaurant or a video podcast? We run dedicated services for those too.

FAQ
FAQ: hiring a videographer in Bogotá
How much does a camera operator cost per day in Bogotá?
It depends on shoot length, the camera, lens and audio package, any extra crew, location and travel, and how you want the footage delivered. Send us the date and the brief, and we'll come back with a firm quote.
Can we book by the hour instead of a full day?
Yes. Tell us how long the shoot runs and we'll quote hourly or by the day, whichever fits.
Do you deliver the raw footage?
Yes, that's the whole service. You get the original camera files in RAW or log, plus audio, organized and ready to ingest. We don't edit or re-encode anything.
How fast do we get the footage?
Fast. The exact turnaround and the handoff method, download link or your own drive, are agreed before we shoot, so your post schedule can count on it.
What cameras do you shoot on?
Cinema cameras that record RAW and log, with pro lenses and audio. We confirm the exact package with your quote so your post team can check codecs and frame rates ahead of time.
Can you put together a bigger crew in Colombia?
If the shoot needs dedicated sound, lighting or extra cameras, put it in the brief and we'll scope it in the quote.
Do you shoot outside Bogotá?
Yes. We're based in Bogotá and travel anywhere in Colombia. Travel is built into the quote.
Do we need a filming permit in Bogotá?
Filming in Bogotá's public space generally requires a permit (PUFA) through the city's film commission. Share your locations in the brief and we'll flag what may apply.
