A Film Budget By a Veteran Line Producer is Critical for Film Finance

A film budget by a veteran line producer is critical for film finance, according to experts in the field.  One of the biggest mistakes lenders comment upon is the inadequacy of a film budget submitted by a producer seeking funding.

Film financiers and lenders in the entertainment business are well studied in the process of film budgeting and scheduling and can determine a sub-standard film budget from one properly custom created by a seasoned film producer with extensive experience in filmmaking.

The common complaint is that such a lack of understanding of the importance of a quality film budget and schedule from an established line producer demonstrates not only a lack of respect for the investors' or lenders' financial contributions and its safety, but also the inability of the producer to delegate where necessary.

Film Budget Inc. founder Producer Jack Binder created Filmbudget.com to provide filmmakers with a top quality and professional film budget and schedule, screenplay breakdown and film consulting services.

Binder has produced film for the major Hollywood studios, independent production companies and his own indie film companies.   His feature film and television producer credits can be found here.

Why Spend Money to Get a Real Film Budget for Investors?

Whey spend money to get a real film budget for investors?

The most important reason to have a line producer create a custom, accurate and proven film budget and schedule including a methodical screenplay breakdown is a matter of integrity. Simply put, if an investor is to trust you with their money, they are rightly concerned if you couldn't be bothered to have a good film budget created.

In order to have film finance provided for your film, financiers are not wrong in insisting one invest in themselves first by obtaining film budgets and schedules from a seasoned line producer themselves. This demonstrates a strong work ethic, responsibility, ability to delegate. After all, if you are not willing to invest in you, why should they?

Get a film budget from a professional. Seriously.
