The most daunting task for many early-stage filmmakers is budgeting. Here's my process for creating a first draft film budget using the "Telefilm Micro-Budget" template.
This isn't a precise total, it is a rough estimate cost given the films parameters. After this first draft, I would polish the amount after plugging in negotiated union rates, receiving quotes from rental houses, etc.
