Budget

In today’s lesson Tayla completed the budget sheet. The budget sheet states how much each prop and costume that we want to use for our production would cost when creating our production professionally. Tayla firstly talked about the equipment that we were would need to use for our production, which includes a camera, boom mike, tripod, lighting, camera and sound operators and the use of an editing suite. The cost of the equipment was taken off a website which hires out the equipment needed for professional use. Tayla then went on to look at the cost of the costumes that we want to use. To find the price of these she went onto a clothing website and looked at how much it would cost to buy these outfits. She then went on to look at the cost of the props that we want to use off a range of websites. These props include a Mac Book, Iphone 4s, fake alcohol and pills, school bags and also a purse. Tayla then went on to a website to look at how much it would cost to hire an actor per day. As we were filming three separate scenes we would need to hire 9 actors for our production. Finally she looked at the location hire for a house and a school, and also how much it would cost to license a song for a film. After completing this she then worked out the total cost for the production if we were hiring all the equipment and actors from professional companies. After doing this she then went on to say how much all of these things would cost when doing a school production. In the end it would cost us nothing to produce our advertising campaign as we are going to be borrowing the equipment from the school and providing the props and costumes ourselves.
