This workshop will provide participants with an overview on preparing realistic budgets for a variety of short-form projects, including short films (doc and narrative), music videos, and digital content, at different scales. Participants will get a close-up look at different budgets, learning more about how they are built, what things really cost, and how those same budgets are reconciled at the end of production.
THIS WORKSHOP WILL TAKE PLACE ON ZOOM
