Budgeting a feature or a short can be complicated enough, but at least you have all of the information at your fingertips. You have a script, schedule, rates—all of these things are at your disposal. However what happens when you need to budget a TV show? You don’t have all the scripts, there’s seemingly no way to create a schedule and, on the surface, no way to generate a budget. And once that budget is established, how do you handle decision making and cost tracking over a many, many months long process? These seemingly unsolved issues do have answers, and ones that may be simpler than you think.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(255, 255, 255); font-size: 18px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSuccessfully producing a TV show to get on screen requires that you understand not just how to build a TV budget, but also how to operate it. Knowing the ins and outs of Movie Magic and the various tools within as it relates to television is key. It’s very easy to get overwhelmed and drown in the details of creating and managing the budget of a series. Through thorough research of the software, what it does and how it affects your project, you will be able to create TV budgets with ease. Presenting a solid TV budget will help you gain the confidence of those who can ultimately invite you into the inner circle of TV producing and allow you to advance your career to new heights. \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 18px; color: rgb(255, 255, 255);\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTo help you on your path is Rami Rank who has produced on Amazon's GOLIATH, DEXTER for Showtime, SWINGTOWN for CBS, HELP ME and HELP YOU for ABC, as well as features such as the remake of APRIL FOOL'S DAY. \u003c\/strong\u003eThrough his storied career, Rami has produced and budgeted for all types of television shows, including some of the biggest ones out there. \u003cem\u003eHe knows intimately what goes into the vital aspect of creating a budget for these projects and is ready to share all he’s learned exclusively with you.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 18px; color: rgb(255, 255, 255);\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIn this 3-session on-demand class, Rami will offer detailed, practical, and exhaustive guide to creating and managing a successful TV budget. \u003c\/strong\u003eIn session one he will review the basic starting point of a TV budget: where the information comes from and how to utilize it. He will review some basic concepts like Budgeting and Scheduling Software, Rate Guides and the two types of budgets you’ll be creating – Patterns and Amorts. Session 2 will be a deep dive into the Amort budget. Students will receive a copy of an Amort budget to use as reference as we walk through all of the departments, positions and costs to consider in preparing the Amort. In the final session you will receive copies of a pattern budget to use as reference as he teaches how this budget is transformed into an episodic budget and then tracked using hot costs and cost reports. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 18px; color: rgb(255, 255, 255);\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eYou will leave these three classes with the knowledge base and confidence to tackle any TV budget.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 18px;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(255, 255, 255);\"\u003ePLUS! this class comes with downloadable handouts that you can use for your own projects including:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cul\u003e\r\n\u003cli style=\"font-size: 18px;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(255, 255, 255); font-size: 18px;\"\u003eAmort Sample Budget\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli style=\"font-size: 18px;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(255, 255, 255); font-size: 18px;\"\u003ePattern Sample Budget\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli style=\"font-size: 18px;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(255, 255, 255); font-size: 18px;\"\u003eCost Report Example\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli style=\"font-size: 18px;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(255, 255, 255); font-size: 18px;\"\u003eCost Report Summary Example\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli style=\"font-size: 18px;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(255, 255, 255); font-size: 18px;\"\u003eHot Cost Sample\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003chr\u003e\r\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #42c2cb; font-size: 14pt;\"\u003e\"As a long time producer, I know how important a solid budget is for any television show, and I know just how challenging it is to create one successfully—much harder than for features and shorts.
