🎬 GET IT DONE
The Low-Budget Filmmaking Weekend Intensive
Taught by Producer Frank Zanca | 22 IMDb Credits | Sept 21–22 | Atlanta
You’ve got the vision. The script. The hunger.
But the budget? Tight.
That doesn’t mean you stop. That means you get smarter. More tactical. Relentless.
In this 2-day, no-fluff intensive, veteran producer Frank Zanca breaks down exactly how to take your film from idea to distribution—on a budget that doesn’t break you.
He’s produced 22 films. None of them were handed to him. Now he’s handing you the blueprint.
🎭 ACTORS: STOP WAITING TO BE CAST. START CASTING YOURSELF.
This weekend is for actors who are ready to stop hoping and start producing. Got an idea for a short? A proof-of-concept? A showcase for your type? We’ll help you shoot smart, finish strong, and get your work seen. You don’t need permission—you need a plan.
💥 WHO THIS IS FOR:
- Filmmakers ready to shoot, not just talk
- Writers with a script and no roadmap
- Producers who want to stretch every dollar
- Directors who need real-world tactics, not film school fluff
- Actors who want to create roles instead of waiting for auditions
- Anyone tired of hearing “you can’t do that on your budget”
🔧 THE GAME PLAN:
DAY 1: BUILD THE BLUEPRINT
- SCRIPTING – Write lean, punchy stories that don’t bankrupt you
- SCRIPT BREAKDOWN – Find hidden costs before they sabotage your shoot
- BUDGETING 1 – Know where to cut, where to invest, how to stretch every cent
DAY 2: EXECUTE LIKE A WARRIOR
- BUDGETING 2 – Lock in a realistic, actionable plan
- PRE-PRODUCTION – Build your crew, scout locations, lock logistics
- PRODUCTION & POST – Shoot smart. Cut tighter. Deliver on time.
- DISTRIBUTION – Get your film seen and monetized—without begging gatekeepers
🎯 YOU’LL LEAVE WITH:
- A bulletproof budget template
- A shot list strategy that saves time and money
- A distribution roadmap tailored to your film
- The confidence to build momentum as an actor-creator
You need a plan. You need execution. You need this weekend.
