WHAT IS A PRELIMINARY ART
DEPARTMENT CREW BUDGET? (In the Entertainment industry.)
WHAT IS A PRELIMINARY ART DEPARTMENT CREW BUDGET?
This is an example of a preliminary Art Department
crew budget. There are many types and templates out there. Creating your own
for your show is really easy.
I created this with Art Department Production Designer Jon Gary Steele,
on the Sony film, ‘When a Stranger Calls’. It is an art department preliminary
budget. It is the preliminary budget the Production Designer breakdowns with
the Art Director and Art Department Coordinator to project the art department crew
cost factors for the shoot.
It was designed to focus on art department budgetary factors for the
art department crew. Defining changes, priorities, time lines and detailing projected
cost factors for the Line Producer, Supervising Producer, Key Accountant and
any studio or production company audits on a continuous basis for the run of
the shoot.
On a tight budget this is one of many helpful breakdowns to project
costs and enable the moving of money to areas and departments where the bump is
needed. Every department head hates this, but it is a reality.
I used this on numerous film and shows.
It details:
- Description…
- Amount/Number of Weeks…
- Units or Days…
- X number of Weeks…
- Rate…
- Subtotal…
- Total…
- Crew Title…
- Crew Name…
- Prep (Number of Days or Weeks of Pre-production)…
- Number of Shooting Days/Weeks…
- Number of Wrap Days/Weeks…
- Box (Kit Rental)…
- Car (Vehicle Allowance)…
Working Example:
The intent was to keep a thumb on the time lines and cost factors for
the Art Department crew.
