Film stratages

• Doesn't need to be a big budget film to be a good film.
• Low budget films have a low risk in loss of money as there is not alot of money to be lost. Quite profitable.
• Low budget means have to use natural lighting, more realistic view.
• Buying cars instead of hireing them - cheaper.
• Finding a location instead of building one - cheaper. Nottingham, old fashin estates.
• Makes up the scripts with the actors to get a better and more realistic story line. The is better if the story line is really good. Its not all about the actors.
• Actors, film crew and team work together as one to have a working proccess. Come up with better ideas.
• Social realism - recreating reality of society.
