Here's the sitch.
Our goal is to raise $6,000 on this film. You may say, "that is quite a bit of money for a short film." You're not wrong, but let's look at where it's going, and hopefully you'll think we're a tad more reasonable.
PRODUCTION DESIGN:
We have a mighty design team, which is quite exciting, but the task of dressing some of the sets in Flawless is nevertheless daunting. We'll need props, wood, paint, furniture, costumes, etc. If the set decorations of Brazil and A Clockwork Orange and Edward Scissorhands had a love child, our home interior set would be that child. It's going to take a lot of prep and a lot of work.
LOCATIONS AND EXTRA EQUIPMENT:
It frequently costs to rent out locations, such as waiting rooms, office space (two of our interior locations), and sound stages (where we build our own sets). Surprise surprise, it also costs to rent lighting equipment, dollies and track, etc.
FESTIVAL ENTRY:
Flawless hopes to make its way through the festival circuit, but every festival (big and small) has its own entry fee, and these fees are going to add up.

CRAFT SERVICES:
We have to feed the cast and crew for every one of our shoots. I know, they're so demanding. *eye roll*
The summary statement is: if this film is going to look as good as it has the potential to with our rockin' all-star crew (I can't believe I just wrote that), we're going to need a 6K budget. But I promise you, it WILL pay off.
