Big Budget Form

Often you'll need budget for a mixed media or live action job.

The concepts are the same as animation budgeting -although you may have work with union rates and paymasters for live productions.

As with actors, a company needs to be a union signatory (have a contract with whatever union) to pay union workers. Typically, you can hire a third party to act as paymaster -they handle all the payroll and fringe payments.

Here's a link to this entire budget in Excel form.
