Production Budget

Considering the subject matter and the time span of production, the production's budget will come primarily out of the crew's pocket.  As it stands now for the estimated budget, the majority of expenditures will be in production. I've set aside a maximum of $250 dollars for production. The majority of the  production expenses pertain to travel (gas) and supplies (batteries, photocopying research). Next to production, the only real major expense of the total production is festival submissions. I am setting a maximum of 100 dollars for festival submission. This will allow for the submission to  3-4 in-state festivals. Conclusively, the estimated budget for the entire production is $270. Following is the breakdown of the budget.

Equipment Needs

For each week of production our group will utilize a consistent amount of equipment.
This weekend for our first weekend of shooting (Feb 12th- 12th) we will use the following:

(Interview and B-Roll List)
Canon 7D
Canon Tii**
Sticks
Arri Kit
Boom mic (sennheiser)
h4n recorder
2 xlr cables
boom pole
Shure Mixer
Wireless Mic**
25 ft. stingers X4
gel bucket







**Considering we will be shooting mass at St. Mary's this weekend, we thought as a good idea to have another camera(man). Also, we will be doing the interview inside a very echoey room, so saw it as a good idea to have some sound options with the lav and the boom.

For the following weeks of interviews, we will use the same equipment (as long as we continue to have access to it for the duration of the semester.)
