Hey, Guys I am new and just about getting my feet wet, basically decided to produce a short (well shortish) I figure it will be about 20mins, i have a good script and am now trying to prepare the budget for it,
As far as locations are concerned that i have covered, I am planniing to shoot this HD, simply because i figured id pick one format and i chose that.
I am having difficulty trying to budget for the "Film" version of this,
basically i can see how this would work using film .. i would end up cans of the stuff post shooting. Whats the deal with HD?
Is it reasonable that the cinematographer download onto a disk and give me the disk after, or a setup where it downloads from camera to computer? do these type of setups exist?
Basically would like to get it into a format where i could use Final Cut,
Wanted to know what the deal was with this, how much should i allocate budget wise to achive this?
I am based in london, and was also wondering how much i should look to pay a decent director and DOP i.e. going rates etc ..
Please advise
Many Thanks
Mo
