Elliot Grove breaks down the differences between low budget films for the Raindance blog. Here is it below, once and for all:
"In the realm of low budgets, low budget can mean one of four things:
In Hollywood Low Budget, also known as Indiewood, is $5-8,000,000.
ie: Memento, Donnie Darko, The Good Girl.
The Low Budget Film: One Million Dollars/Pounds/Euros.
ie: Shallow Grave, Memento, sex, lies and videotape, Reservoir Dogs.
Micro Budget: About a half million.
ie: Open Water, Evil Aliens
No Budget: Under 100,000
ie: PI, Blair Project, Clerks, El Mariachi, London To Brighton
So, when some one asks "What's your budget? Answer Low/ Micro/ or No.
And make the thing!"
