True Grand Total Production	corrected, all lines counted	$18,330

Crafty and Meals is a single $1,190 allowance covering the July 7 group lunch plus all shoot day meals and crafty, both studio days and Chuck's Ranch. One gluten-free plate every day for Kristine. The V3 PDF stated $15,000 but its own line items sum to $17,480, the $2,480 Set Operations block was dropped from the total. Adding 3-day camera, grip, HMU, and boom brings the true figure to $18,330. This is the real cost. Editor, Sound Mixer, and Camera A are cash to Raul, invoiced clean. Writer and Director fees are deferred and recoup per the BCII agreement, outside this cash budget. This tab is producer only, no rates appear anywhere cast or crew can see.
