If you've been following the blog since inception, you'd notice the budget increasing slowly.
There are of course truly valid and several reasons for this which I'd like to share with all of you who've supported the project
1. Extra travel like to Coimbatore, Guwahati and Kerala. And there's definitely gonna be a second trip to at least two centres. There are certain stories that cropped up while filming and I didnt have time to explore them fully.
2. Extra equipment - so it turns out for optimal editing, I require special 1 TB drives with fire-wires which aren't as cheap as normal USB hard-drives. And then I already have about 344 GB of material ( around 32 hours). Now the thing is, for editing , I'll need to convert the AVCHD files to a special format which makes new files which are 10X original! Thats over 3 TB!
3. Editing costs have increased.
4.Buying rights for some clips from channels.
But the great thing is despite the big jump in budget, you've helped me cover a large amount.
And there's still room for more support!
