Based on the leading Movie Magic Budgeting Software, this book takes the reader through each line item, describes the background for it, how it fits into the overall production, and, most importantly, any issues or pitfalls that may arise from this item. The On Production Budget Book is designed to be an easy-to-use reference; each section of text is linked to the relevant screen from the budget. The accompanying dual platform CD-ROM contains an annotated version - saving, printing, and library features have been disabled - of Movie Magic Budgeting Software that has been customized by the author to tie in with the book. The whole package will demonstrate how to use the specific features of the software to create accurate budgets.
