THIS WORKSHOP HAS BEEN TEMPORARILY POSTPONED.

Co-presented by producer Naomi Just (Christmas Ransom, The Unusual Suspects) and Media Mentors’ own Esther Coleman-Hawkins.

Understanding how to create and read a budget is essential for everyone, from production co-ords wanting to progress their careers to producers wanting to develop, pitch and create any scripted content.

In this masterclass we’ll cover the basics of budgeting including:

• What is the difference between micro, low, mid and high budget?
• How to use the Screen Aus A to Z budget
• How to create a lo-fi mini budget
• How much things like crew, cast and locations cost, and where to find that out

Using a real life example you’ll walk through how a show is budgeted and see how each creative choice can impact the bottom line.
