How much does it cost to make a movie?

Depending on what film you are shooting, you must remember that a good film does not necessarily cost much money, the equipment is not necessarily good, and there are not necessarily many people. But directors and editors must have good brains.

Do you want to make those stupid commercial films in China? Anyone with an ass can shoot.

The key is whether you want to shoot a long film or a short film, which has no shooting experience. What you need depends on what membrane you are and what structure you are. Some movies only need a few people and a house.

For example, "Dogwell" was shot on an indoor stage. The house and most of the props are fictional, not physical. "People from the Earth" science fiction film, just one room, six old men and women, all talking over 1 hour. These two films are excellent and distinctive, and the editors and directors are very clever. Investment is also very small. Let me give you an example, Blair Witch Project. This film has the lowest historical cost. There is no director, no script, and some actors take turns shooting. The camera used is bought, but it can be returned within 0/0 days after shooting, which can be described as saving money and money. This movie is mainly about three people, and it is a horror movie. The shooting technique is quite amateur and the whole film is quite rough, but it can become a classic in the history of horror movies. They can be said to have stumbled into each other by mistake, using a documentary method, which is quite real in the current terrorist scene. There are many examples. Crazy shop assistants are also amateurs, and the cost is low. Later, they won many prizes.

Of course, the director should have practical experience. It is impossible to be without money for a long time. It is also possible to find a film and television major. Of course, I think the most important thing is that this person should have his own ideas, style and good mind. Your member said that you spend a lot of money mainly because you don't know enough about movies. You can shoot it yourself with DV instead of using a professional machine and record it on the spot. Everyone has his own people, and the main script story depends on what story it is. Dialogue can be used in the whole film, as long as the dialogue is interesting and deep. Find an experienced cameraman and use lens language to make up for the monotonous picture caused by insufficient funds.

I'm QQ3 10 173362. I am a movie fan. I watch all kinds of movies. I also conceive a script and want to make a short film. You can add me to communicate, and mark "movie" when adding it.

Amateurs can't shoot action movies well. It's easy, artificial, fake and cliche. Action movies still need experienced action guidance.
