Budgets

Screen Australia Project Manager Kelly Vincent walks us through the ins and outs of creating a strong application with an accurate budget. Kelly gives her advice on a broad range of topics including: how to make sure your budget reflects your script, why a production accountant is worth their weight in gold, why you need to include marketing and publicity spend, the meaning of terms such as completion guarantor, and how to know how much items will cost.
