Has anyone ever asked you what the budget of your film is and you had no idea how to answer? Or has anyone ever told you that you needed to find a way to revise your script so the budget wouldn’t be so high, but you didn’t know what parts of your script were pushing the budget over the edge? Or have you just wondered how a line producer would look at your script?
