While the other members of the group completed other roles i decided to work out the budget for the film. I began by creating a realistic budget as if this film was gaing to be proffesionally made with no expensive spared (ie. the best equiptment). First i worked out the ongoing costs, for example some of the equiptment if rented causing the cost to constantly increase over time. Another example of this is the actors who will have to be paid an ongoing wage.
Here are my findings:
- Camera
