Budget proposal for fashion advert


Introduction:

In this blog post, I am going to research and present the findings of any production research needed towards our fashion advertisement. My media product will be a low budget product, so costs will be reasonably low.

Resources:

Personnel:

(1) The personnel needed for the production of my short media product will be a producer, director, researcher, script writer, equipment operator (camera, lights, sound), editor, actor/actresses, set/location designer.

All of these members must be asked for permission and I must take into account of costs to the personnel.

Talent

Talent needed for each member of personnel must be based on the experience and qualifications achieved.

E.g. director must have previous experience, models must have modelling/performing experience, editor must have qualifications on editing software/hardware.

Finance

(refer to costs)

Suppliers/equipment

(2) Suppliers are needed to get the appropriate equipment and resources needed. The equipment needed to help in making my product are;
  • camera
  • tri-pod
  • microphone/audio recorder
  • boompole
  • dolly/tracker
  • lighting
  • editing software/hardware (Photoshop, computer basics (monitor, keyboard, hard drive, mouse) camera accesories, headphones/speakers)

The props that need to be taken into account for the purpose of the production are;
  • black, white and patterned backdrops
  • alcohol bottles
  • sheesha pot
  • chair
  • clothing items (clothes, shoes, jewellery, accessories)
  • Make-up/hair products
  • projector
All of these equipment will need to put into costs/budgeted.

Facilities

The facilities that are available to allow me to plan and create my media product are at home, the work place (schools), public facilities (library, internet cafes, etc).

I must take into account if any costs are needed when using these facilities, e.g. usage fees, electrics, printing costs, etc).

Locations

For our media product, we have chosen to set our locations in Sidney Stringer Academy theatre, as we need a wide enough space to place the large backdrops and need the appropriate lighting.

Logistical support

Logistic support is taking into consideration on the equipment used and the costs to help us move our equipment and personnel from each location.

As all of our production will be done within the same building, we do not need to rent out any vehicles to help us with mobility.

Costs:

All of these costs are estimated according to research through primary and secondary research. This is not the finalized amount and it will be used to help budget my finances. (3)
