AI video production in Vietnam costs between 3.5 million and 50+ million VND per video in 2026, depending on format and complexity. A simple 10–15 second visual clip starts at 3.5 million VND, a scripted ad runs 8–20 million VND, and a cinematic AI ad with characters and dialogue costs 25–50 million VND or more. Delivery takes 3–7 business days for most formats.

What Determines the Price of an AI Video?
Four factors drive cost in AI video production:
- Number of shots and scenes. Each distinct shot is generated, curated, and graded individually. A 3-shot mood clip is a fundamentally smaller job than a 12-shot narrative edit.
- Script complexity. A video with a logical story arc requires scriptwriting, scene planning, and continuity work that a pure visual piece does not.
- Characters and dialogue. Consistent characters across shots, lip-synced dialogue, and emotional performance are the most technically demanding elements, which is why cinematic formats sit at the top of the price range.
- Revisions and versioning. Multiple aspect ratios (9:16, 1:1, 16:9), language versions, and A/B creative variants add production time.
Notably, video length matters less than in traditional production. A 30-second video with 3 shots can cost less than a 10-second video with 10 shots.
How Does This Compare to Traditional Video Production?
A traditional commercial shoot in Vietnam involves crew, equipment, locations, talent, and weeks of coordination. Established production companies in Ho Chi Minh City and Hanoi describe standard timelines of 6–10 weeks from brief to final delivery, with pre-production alone taking 2–4 weeks. Budgets for professionally shot commercial content typically start around 60–100 million VND and scale into the hundreds of millions for multi-location campaigns.
The practical comparison for a performance-marketing budget:
| AI video | Traditional shoot | |
|---|---|---|
| One 15-second ad | 8–20 million VND | 60–150 million VND |
| Five creative variants for A/B testing | 25–60 million VND | Usually not feasible |
| Time to first deliverable | 3–7 business days | 6–10 weeks |
For Facebook and TikTok advertising, where creative fatigue sets in within weeks and winning ads must be replaced constantly, the ability to produce five test creatives for the price of a fraction of one shoot day changes the economics of the entire ad account.
Which Format Should Your Business Choose?
- E-commerce and product brands: start with visual AI videos (3.5–10M VND) for catalog and retargeting ads, then invest in one scripted ad (8–16M VND) for cold audiences.
- Services, clinics, education: an AI avatar expert video series (5–12M VND each) builds trust at a fraction of the cost of filming a spokesperson monthly.
- Brand campaigns and launches: a creative AI ad with metaphor (15–22M VND) or a cinematic AI ad (25M+ VND) delivers hero-asset impact without hero-asset budgets.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the cheapest AI video format for business?
The most affordable professional format is a visual AI video of 10–15 seconds built from 1–3 shots, priced at 3.5–5 million VND. It works well for social media background ads, product presentation, and brand atmosphere content.
How long does it take to produce an AI video?
Most formats are delivered within 3–7 business days. Complex projects, cinematic ads with dialogue or multi-version campaigns, average 5–14 days. This compares to 6–10 weeks for a traditional shoot.
Are there hidden costs in AI video production?
At QBENIX, the quoted price includes concept development, generation, editing, sound, and delivery in the format you need. Additional costs only arise for extras agreed in advance: extra language versions, additional aspect ratios, or creative variants for testing.
Do prices include advertising setup?
Video production and ad management are separate services. QBENIX produces the creative; ads run from your own ad account, which you keep full ownership of. We also offer Meta Ads management as a separate service.
Is AI video cheaper for longer videos too?
Yes, but the advantage is largest in short formats. AI production prices scale with the number of shots and complexity rather than duration, so a 60-second AI avatar video (5–12M VND) can cost less than a 10-second cinematic piece.
