Pause and Select is a lot like other anime and manga channels out there; they’re trying to make content they find interesting. However, given the production, an issue that often comes up in making these sorts of videos is failure. Books and articles purchased or acquired are both time and money sinks, and oftentimes there are moments where ideas just don’t work. For that reason, videos can cost anywhere from 0-150 dollars in material, but they also have to factor in the sunk cost from failed projects. Holistically speaking, every video costs money. In addition to that, as projects change, so do the costs of things such as translations, paying for artists, paying for music, and paying for relevant services. I maintain a strict general ethos when approaching content creation: cite properly, attribute properly, and give credit where credit is due. For that reason, they try to get permission from the original owners of any footage they use, even if it costs money. If they say ‘no’, they don’t use it. As such, a lot of things like b-roll or audio might end up being more costly than most Anitube videos.
