On a Rabbit Trail

This usually isn't something that you should worry about in the story stages of your script but I just realized this as my film Bounty had an offer made on it today and some carelessness in planning reared its ugly head.

When budgeting make sure you set aside money for E&O insurance, MPAA rating and Title Search and Opinion, not to forget everything you need for completing the edit, color correction and sound.  If you do not dip into these funds then you will have a much larger bartering leverage when it comes to distribution and if you are self distributing you will need these anyway if you want to get it into major outlets or even something as simple as Netflix.
