Submission.
Almost there. Almost there.
Anybody say Per Diems? On a 16 week shoot? On what should be a small budget?
Delivering this budget proves to be a little bit nerve-racking. I SHOULD be able to make this movie for 40% less than what I’m delivering in the budget. But the main issue is TIME. I have to cover my ass. Also the ass of anybody else involved. It’s also a tricky subject matter.
Verité filmmaking sure is it’s own type of animal. A lot of it is a leap of faith. There are 2 examples for this (thrilling) type of filmmaking that I would love to share.

So we push on, delivering the budget to our “studio”, ready to see what they throw back at us. It’s a very important project for us.
Paz.
