Does anybody have any information about the budget used for pic related?
I know that they had a crowdfunding campaign that made about $82k. But I really have a hard time believing that they pulled off that kind of quality with that little money. Sure, it's no blockbuster but if you compare it to projects like Blair Witch Project (I know it's a huge time difference but anyway) or Pranormal activity, they only managed to do everything found footage style. Of course that was also a design choice but we all know that it came out of necessity. Blair witch had a budget of around $60k and Paranormal activity about $15k if I remember correctly.
Is it because of the advancement of technology that this kind of quality is now possible or is there some capital that I missed?

the crowdfunding is all they had
movies don't cost so much to make
Hollywood budgets are artificially retarded because of (((them)))
no movie actually costs 200 million to make

I know that Hollywood budgets are just ridiculous. Most of the money goes to the actors and if you have a $200 million film then you need to add about $150 million for marketing.
I don't know if you saw the Void but I mean I know a little bit about the costs of a production. You can see where they saved money (shooting almost entirely on the same location, not many actors, no famous actor, etc.) but still.. I don't have any info on the equipment they used but it all costs a lot. The camera and lense rentals alone... then you have lighting, catering, you still have to pay the actors and the crew, etc. All that with $82K? I'm a little bit in disbelief here. If they really pulled that off then big kudos to them man.

I've seen it and yeah its really well made for 82k
maybe they had some other source of money but nothing about it online
