In the studio world, a script is given to the production department and they go line by line in the budget filling in all the blanks with dollars allotted for every item from producer gifts to location reps, and <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">arrive<\/span> at a budget number. But in the indie world its called reverse budgeting \u2013 where you start with a budget number and work backwards \u2013 filling in the blanks according to what you can get for free, and what you actually have to <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">pay<\/span> for &#8211; oh the whoas of #lowbudgetfilmmaking!<\/p>\n<p>It goes without saying we could not afford a location rep, or even a full days\u2019 rental of a bar, or an office space, or even a full second camera package! But #wherethereisawill! Day one of our schedule started at an office in Van Nuys and ended at another in North Hollywood.\u00a0 Luckily the second location had already been found by one of our directors @KasiABrown \u2013 an oxygen tank refill office no less #brilliant so we had the one location left to find\u2026 within a 10 minute drive\u2026 with adequate parking for our truck, crew, and a bus full of cast\u2026 and who would accept less than $100\/ hour.\u00a0 So the hunt began.\u00a0 We tried looking online, or posting an ad on Craigslist #freaks #desperate, or calling around, so finally I just starting driving around.\u00a0 I was on the hunt for run-down commercial areas and properties with dirty windows, or run down offices that looked like the place hadn\u2019t been touched in months. After assembling this list, I arranged meetings with the managers to view the properties and eventually found a location. The final location? *drumroll* \u2013 a property rental company\u2019s main offices! It was perfect! It had all the props, the mise en scene, a separate room for hair\/ make-up, and the space for our scenes to unfold.<\/p>\n<p>Also I should note that we had an excellent Day One thanks to our wonderful crew and cast that kept the creativity flowing and our energy as high as Colorado Girl Scouts.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Producing an indie feature is never an easy feat.
