SHORT HAND
Short Hand is a podcast series about making a short film. Each episode will guide listeners through a different part of the process, from development to post-production. You’ll hear filmmakers, industry professionals and expert voices as they offer their own perspectives on what it takes to create a great short film.
EPISODE FOUR: ON BUDGETING
In the fourth episode of Short Hand, we’re asking producers how they put together a budget: where they begin, where they get quotes and how they make sure everyone has enough money to do their job. You’ll hear from short film producers Emily Everdee (Mandem, The Call Centre), Jesse Romain (O Black Hole!, Cowboy, Soft Animals) and Cheri Darbon (For Love, Bufflehead).
Topics covered include: breaking down a script, communicating with your Heads of Department, who’s approving the budget, the difference between budgeting for live action and animation, tax credit, insurance, saving costs and being creative with how you spend your budget.
