Budget & Scheduling is the process of translating a script into a practical, executable production plan. This stage breaks down every creative and technical requirement—locations, cast, crew, props, stunts, VFX, equipment, and time—so each element is accurately costed and mapped across a realistic timeline. By identifying resource needs, logistical challenges, and day-to-day workflow, the budget and schedule become the foundation for all production decisions. This ensures the project stays financially controlled, organized, and achievable from pre-production through final delivery.
