Re: Feature or TV
i hear you and a few others always talking about budget and literally the only thing I never thought about when writing specs to sell was budget.
I thought about budget all the time when writing indie movies I wanted to get made myself like in the zero budget to 100K range.
Writing is the best because we can write whatever we want. Isn't it up to the powers that be to decide if they want to make this idea and for how much? Why worry about it now?
I think you can make any idea for zero dollars or 1 billion dollars.
Now I know rom coms are cheaper than Marvel movies, I'm just saying if you're writing your spec -- I don't see why you would limit yourself.
Maybe you think I want to write smaller movies -- but if you're writing Die Hard go full tilt. Don't say, I cant' write this scene or that scene because it costs too much. What is that?
Be a writer not a producer.
