Budget

Since I have written multiple screenplays it would be inpossible for one budget to cover all of them. I have set up this format for budgeting multiple productions on similar low budget scales.

Low Budget	Running Time	Format	Feet per minute	ratio	Footage	shooting	Cost Projection	screen plays:
Budget A	120 min.	16 mm	40	6	28,800	21 days	$214,004	SP#5LL SP#6MM SP#7GG
Budget B	120 min.	16 mm	40	6	28,800	30 days	$266,859	SP#3SM SP#4SC
Budget C	120 min.	16 mm	40	6	28,800	28 days	$314,069	SP#2BK SP#8RE SP#9FW
Budget D	120 min.	?	?	?	?	?	?	SP#1IK SP#10IN

If it's a good script I'll do it. And if it's a bad script, and they pay me enough, I'll do it.
--George Burns

Quotes: From the masters

Hollywood held this double lure for me, tremendous sums of money for work that required no more effort than a game of pinochle.
--Ben Hecht

Its idea of "production value" is spending a milion dollars dressing up a story that any good writer would throw away. Its vision of the rewarding movie is a vehicle for some glamour-puss with two expressions and eighteen changes of costume, or for some male idol of the muddled millions with a permanent hangover, six worn-out acting tricks, the build of a lifeguard, and the mentality of a chicken-strangler.
--Raymond Chandler
