[mr-modern-life]

If anyone wants tips or direction on creating a budget for a DV feature film (this one's around $119k) check out this link:

Hope this helps!

jmac - I think you misunderstood. I was using my 20 year old light kit as an example. I don’t routinely use those eight lights to light my movies. I was asking those that think the budget should include equipment purchases why lighting equipment isn’t included.

Thanks for clarifying.

I'll also agree that this is a good starter spreadsheet with extremely inaccurate and misleading numbers.

Cheers!

directorik, I'd be interested in seeing a sample budget you post when you have the time.
