Did you make any money from the film or was it mostly for experience
Good tips there 😀😀👍 subscribed
You're absolutely inspirational. Your passion comes easily true your words. Well done mate!!! I've memorised your name… Can't wait to see it in the credits of many big productions very soon. Keep going, the sky is your limit…
wow man you are kind of awsome
How did you go about having a Police officer on set?
What is the role of PRODUCER…PLS ANSWER
the analogy with the water at the end was brilliant. I love the simplicity.
That moment you panic because there isn't a apple in his video, bit it's fine I saw it
I know you want to give money to every people in that short film, but that so much money to use!!!
there is any other way to make thing work?
(i have only 500$ and no more income, because i'm student)
Hey I just want to say, you're making awesome videos and I just love your humbleness. Don't lose that! Thanks for sharing your experiences and expertise with all of us!!
I loved the use of the pie chart and the clear explanation. I really love all the advice you're giving- truly inspiring and now I feel like having an apple 😉
look to be ohnest your channel is amazing but your not a good host . plz it was just my opinion . i realy like this channel
Traduction français pliz
Don't you get payed a lot by people Subscribed your channel Simon? You could organize your schoolmates to make that short film together, and that would not need to spend your dollars, and also you would get experienced from there too, why not?
Such a wonderful video! You have really sparked my interest in film again!!!
If the distribution companies get all the profit if they pay for the film budget, then it would just be like you spent so much time making a movie for nothing. Does the film budget that was supplied go to the people who helped make it? Why doesn't the studio get any of the money?
Thank you very much. That was so helpful.
how did you get insurance for it? what was the process?
Cool man great video thanks 🙂
I'm only 13)=
Having extremely hard time finding the money,
I've been planning forever. but don't have the budget.

Great job buddy.
I honestly think you could have filmed that for alot less. Heck I know I could have filmed that for like under $100. But hey thats just me.
The fact that you use the same camera (Canon Rebel t3i) that I am using for my own small indie company relieves a lot of doubt I had about making quality content while not having a more updated camera or the latest model. Loving your channel, cheers mate!
Can u break down what you paid personnel , please?
This is a perfect example of how NOT to budget a film. You really should go to film school because you spent $11,000 on a 4 minute short. If you went you would know most people work for free on a production if it will look good on a reel, hence why good camera equipment is important. Any filmmaker that takes 5 days to shoot a 4 minute short is bad at budgeting time and resources.
What would say a day fee would be for a producer or casting directing?
Bro, Christopher Nolan spent $6000 to make his first ever feature. You spent $11000 to make a 4 min short. Well budgeted ?🤔
ill just leave this here i just have a vision and a goal https://www.gofundme.com/film-amp-magazine
guys big point about film making for amateurs. don't make action films. it happens a lot with young armature filmmakers who want to make their first "big" film, they get excited and start writing action into their stories and then they find it looks terrible. the reason for this is simpley that you don't have the budget for it to look good. action requires stunts which require choreography which requires a choreographer and maybe even stunt doubles and rehearsals which needs rehearsal spaces and takes up time which cost money. money you don't have so just don't do action.
Did you the director get paid?
I enjoyed your film, but 11 grand on a 4 minute film Sorry brother but damn! Unfortunately as others have noted I wished you could of made it a bit longer so it didn’t seem so rushed. Cheers
Short film : My first attempt. Single crew & Zero budget movie, inspired by your videos.

If you're a filmmaker in the uk move back in with mum and dad whilst working full-time there's your budget
I have two kids and an ex wife … Even working 60 hrs a week… trust me, put 90 % of the water in the first cup …
spend on filmmaking because we are very PASSIONATE about it
Thank you for this. I want to write an independent
I produced this entire thing with my last few pennies, which drained me to the point where my acting unfortunately suffered, but tell me what you think anyway, deece or dog shit?? Don't hold back, can you grasp the meta tone I was trying to capture?? https://youtu.be/OFlXZJVX3fA
You did well to hire the policeman, even though you question the expense after the fact. It’s a form of insurance. In certain high risk situations you want that extra insurance.
When it comes to managing risk, you really don’t want to take shortcuts. Educate yourself about set safety and be prepared to hire professionals (and make sure they are competent professionals). “Getting away with” shortcuts is a recipe for disaster. “Getting away with it just this one time” leads to “we got away with it last time, so let’s do it again”, which leads to “there’s really no risk”. Standard risk management is standard for a reason. Ignoring it will eventually lead to catastrophe.
In terms of other positions, inexperienced crew can lead to delays and falling behind schedule. Not hiring experienced people might be false economy. You’re not really saving money if your extra days cost more than crew salary. (This can also be an issue with over ambitious scheduling, which is a subject in itself.)
Sir how to cast actors from different locations like another country or township for your web series, indie Feature film or so? I am from Southeast Asia, Burma. In future projects, i would like to cast foreign actors from neighboring countries like Thai, Singapore, japan, Malaysia, Korea or Australia.
