| Summary: | "On time and on budget: the Holy Grail for filmmakers. Budgeting and scheduling are easy in principle but hard in practice. The successful producer has a solid plan for juggling dozens of activities and costs while retaining the flexibility to cope with those inevitable last-minute changes and stay on course. Other resources look at budgeting and scheduling in isolation; this book is unique in covering the two closely intertwined activities in a single volume. Readers get both topics for the price of one book; competitors cover each topic separately. All the fundamentals of line producing are covered in a quick-reference format and the tips apply no matter what kind of scheduling or budgeting software you're using. In this title, useful tricks of the trade show you how to squeeze the most of a limited budget and tight schedule. It includes specific tips for film, video, shorts, online projects, corporate and educational video, and docs. Companion web site features useful forms/templates, and 60 minutes of video demonstrating line producing techniques and case studies-see the principles put to work. It also includes sample budgets/schedules from different types of projects that you can adapt and use for your own project."--Publisher's description |
