3. Low Budget?
Filming equipment cost around $15,000 with the budget
coming in at way under $500,000.
Thee use of prosumer cameras to capture digital video
rather than the more expensive 35mm film.
Settings were used without permission in advance and the
extras were just people who happened to be there at the
time.
Visual effects done at home on an adobe software.
Did not use a dolly track, they shot in a moving van to create
the same effect.

8. High Budget?
Use of big actors who cost a lot of
money, a big cast, a big production
company, everything professionally
done, top equipment, permission for

countries.
Spent money on the best equipment and
on things which they probably didn’t need
so much.

"dramatically gripping while still brandishing a droll undercurrent of humor”

Centre which, without having screened the film, expressed concern that
Bond "abuses his power and authority" in a scene that suggests Bond
initiates sexual intercourse with Sévérine, a former victim of sex trafficking
