Premise - large number of locations is a budget killer for low-budget films.
Which is more accurate;
#1 - A successful writer of low-budget films wrote that write what you want in the first draft and it's in the rewrites where you'll scale down the number of locations to their budget.
or
#2 - A development exec said he'll pass on the script immediately if the number of locations are many. So the writer won't even get a chance at that rewrite. Do studios do this?
Thanks.
