Film Task, Demographics

Film Task, A cut in our budget.
originally our budget was £29 million after tax. It has now been cut by a third, to work our way around this we had to make some changes to what we were going to spend the budget on, the first thing that had to be cut down was the cost of the actors, we reduced the cost of the actors to £7 million we did this by using B list actors. The Location was changed from an American location to a location in the UK reducing the cost to £5 million. We changed our director to a B list director which would only cost £2 million. The Editors used would cost us around £3 million. Altogether this comes to £19 million which is roughly a two thirds of our original budget.
To prevent this happening it is best for a film to have many investors rather than just one, this is because if the one investor pulls out the producer has no choice but to not continue with the film. However, if there was many investors and one of them pulled out it wouldn't effect the budget as much.
