Low-to-No Budget Filmmaking with Apparatus Productions

The Apparatus Productions team will share invaluable tips on how to cut costs, cut deals and save yourself from needless hassles by leading filmmakers line item by line item through real film budgets. The emphasis will be on 16-mm narrative films, but impecunious filmmakers of all kinds can benefit from this helpful information. Apparatus, a unique not-for-profit production company, has fully produced a collection of innovative short films, several of which have been presented at the Festival in prior years, and has provided funds for a score of other productions. This discussion will be moderated by James Schamus, Christine Vachon, and Todd Haynes.

As you use our Online Archives, please understand that the information presented from Festivals, Labs, and other activities is taken directly from official publications from each year. While this information is limited and doesn't necessarily represent the full list of participants (e.g. actors and crew), it is the list given to us by the main film/play/project contact at the time, based on the space restrictions of our publications. Each entry in the Online Archives is meant as a historical record of a particular film, play, or project at the time of its involvement with Sundance Institute. For this reason, we can only amend an entry if a name is misspelled, or if the entry does not correctly reflect the original publication.
