Frequently Asked Questions

What does "microbudget" mean?"

Most feature films, even independent films with what's considered a low budget, cost roughly $15 million to $20 million dollars. At the next smaller level, $150,000 is what some people spend to make their first indie feature. Take that another factor of ten, $15,000, and you have what some people spend to make a short film.

Now expand it back from a short film to a full feature film with dozens of locations and a large cast, based on a popular novel. That's the microbudget level, and that's The Krone Experiment.

Is the original novel still available?

What are you guys doing next?

We're looking into the idea of serialized webcasts -- a way of telling the story over the course of many short episodes. Could be good!
