Just trying to get a film made which is always difficult no matter what kind of a budget you have. Not having a budget makes it even more difficult. Having nineteen days and no budget makes it extremely difficult.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
As long as you keep your budgets small, there's a way of making films.
To try and raise a budget for a film that is strictly for adults and both strong and graphic in content is not easy, especially when there is pressure to spend serious money on good special effects.
Talking to other people who make low-budget movies, everyone kind of has the same struggle.
One of the worst things you can do is have a limited budget and try to do some big looking film. That's when you end up with very bad work.
A big budget studio film is slower, they've got so much to create around you. Everything is more complicated.
When you do a low budget movie, you get a little over-ambitious.
Films were never in my budget. Didn't occur to me till much later. I hoped for a long, good life, which I've had and I'm having as an actor. I didn't expect the rest.
Time and time again I was told that I would never make the film on time and never make it on budget. That kind of criticism tends to turn me into a great big motor of efficiency.
It takes a lot of time and a lot of energy and a lot of focus and dedication to do a film, and it's just not worth it if you're going to be miserable for even a day.
I love films that are made with almost no budget.
