Atlanta Film Festival (Day 8) Creative Conference - Break the Bank—or Don’t: How to Create Masterpieces on Any Budget

From the venue:

Break the Bank—or Don’t: How to Create Masterpieces on Any Budget

Independent filmmaking is hard enough, but without a realistic budget, you can't have financial clarity to fuel your creativity. We'll discuss financing options and challenges independent filmmakers face in this economy, as well as how to think differently about budgeting so that when it's time to pitch your film to investors or sell your film to a distributor, you have a product that the market can bear.
