Hate doing film budgets? Hire a Line Producer!
Get your film budget done right the first time! Don’t put yourself in a position where you run out of production funds! Each film regardless of the genre has multiple line items that can get out of hand. For some it’s cast, others SFX, locations, extras, wardrobe, etc. If you don’t control it you will run out of money. Imagine the shame and embarrassment you will feel if you have to go back to your funding source. They might cut their losses and say no. Never attempt to do a film budget yourself if you don’t have years of experience in film production. They are just so many variables and you don’t want your film investor to call you out on a line item that doesn’t look right.
As a professional Line Producer, I’ve worked on both SAG & Non-Union indie films with budgets ranging from $75,000.00, $150,000.00, $250,000.00, $300,000.00, $700,000.00, and $2 million.
My film budgets cover SAG Bonds, SAG H&P, Production Insurance, Contingency, Post Production, Distribution Deliverable cost, Legal fees, Marketing, etc.
For those filmmakers wanting to work with SAG take these budget tiers into consideration. Each one has its pros and cons.

SAG Films between $75k to $300k
