I just read the article: Documentary Budgeting by Robert Bahar. I work for a Project Mangenent Firm in Miami. We specilize in tracking resouces across the duration of given single or group of projects. We deal mainly with the AEC (Architecture, Engineering, and Construction) industries. I downloaded that template attached to the article and it looks almost exactly like what we make our AEC schedules off of. All of our Projects usually start off as list like that one, where it lists all the resources, costs, and durations; We then make a cost loaded schedule that follows a critical path methedology base line. Anyway, I was just wondering how the schedulies are created and manipulated in the film indusrty. What software is standardly used, what are the best practices and procedures, and how are they implimented, etc...Can you point me in the right direction, or maybe put me in contact with Robert Bahar. Thank you. Hello. I just read the article: Documentary Budgeting by Robert Bahar. I work for a Project Mangenent Firm in Miami.

I read that you are also on the board of the International Documentary Association, based in Los Angeles, CA. I am wondering whether there is a New York branch ? My last film "MISTAKEN IDENTITY: Sikhs in America - A 9/11 Story" won three first prize awards at American Film Festivals six months after it release. Unfortunately, as all indie filmmakers, my financials (the Sikh community in the USA) sabortaged the film stating that they wanted to be the directors, and have themselves and their families exhibited after a hundred year of no real recognition in the North America ... This I naturally refused, as none of them came from a film background and I explained I did not want to make a propaganda film on them. I will be place MISTAKEN IDENTITY on RENEWMEDIA May be we can partner and exchange websites and direct filmmakers, especially from South Asia. Thanks. Hi Robert Bahar,
