To recap, 'films with a low budget' are ones that don't need much of budget! They don't use famous actors, special effects, expensive locations, costumes, car chases, hit songs on the soundtrack, hundreds of extras, computer generated imagery, or are based on best-selling novels. So what kind of films can be made with a low budget?
Mumblecore
People talking and talking to each other.
Couch
What's a couch movie? Abigail's party and Coming apart are examples. Films about people sitting on their couch!
Social realist
Free locations, non-actors, real weather, contemporary setting.
Play
Produce a play and film the thing using long takes!
One room
Been done already (Sugar) but a good idea?
One table
My dinner with Anto?
