Breakdown, Scheduling, and Budgeting
for Motion Pictures:

In order to accurately budget a dramatic motion picture film it is required to first:
  1. Do a Script Breakdown of the production elements
  2. Construct a Production Cross-Plot Strip Board
  3. Formulate an efficient, economical Shooting Schedule.
  4. Compile an accurate Day Out Of Days Report
Only then can an accurate motion picture budget be compiled for your film.
