Schedules, Budgets and Consulting Services

As a freelance producer, I am available to prepare budgets and schedules for your independent film project. From your submitted screenplay and a consultation meeting or phone call, I create a detailed script breakdown, one-line shooting schedule and industry-standard budget.

Drawing on past experience and my extensive knowledge of current union & non-union rates, production logistics and industry trends, I will give you a detailed plan for getting your project to the next level. You will come away with full presentation-quality materials for your production package – print-outs, CD-ROM or emailed files -- in the Entertainment Partners Movie Magic format – the ammunition you need to show investors and studios your plan for a successful film shoot.

The level of detail, turnaround time and complexity of your project must also be factored in. For a quote, drop me an email about your project today or call 505-903-9802 (New Mexico).
