Budget
TRAVEL
The total travel costs for the team + crew will amount to an estimated total of $10,000 USD. This includes flights and travel expenses.
Based on projections, we expect the total budget to complete FLOW to amount to $25,000 USD. The following is a breakdown of the budget's various components:
EQUIPMENT
While the film crew has the majority of the equipment needed, some purchases are absolutely necessary to ensure top quality visuals and audio. We estimate these costs to amount to $2,000 USD.
POST-PRODUCTION
Post production costs include paying the editor(s), colorist, sound design & music licensing, and memory storage. We estimate the total for post-production to amount to $5,000 USD.
MARKETING
We estimate the costs associated with marketing to amount to $2,000 USD. This includes hosting a website, running ads, and shipping perks to our supporters.
DISTRIBUTION
Distribution is a vital park of ensuring the project is seen far and wide. Our goal is to submit the film to film festivals around the world for consideration. We estimate the total cost to be $2,000 USD.
MISC
There are always additional costs incurred, especially in indie film. We've budgeted for a $4,000 USD buffer to support unforeseen expenses and reimbursement costs taken on by the producers throughout the project.
