Budgeting

Hey all, I'm sort of struggling on how I should create my budget list for my short film. Are there any websites to have a look at on the best way to budget a short film or any advice I could get from you all. Many thanks! :)

You want to break down your script and then schedule it. You can't know how much anything is going to cost until you know what you need, and how long you'll need it.

There's software out there that can help you, but I personally think for smaller productions it's more trouble than it's worth. So I do mine by hand with Word and Excel. I've got some free templates/examples up on my website if you want to check it out.
