‘Tkg: The Kids of Grove.’
If there is a more efficient model for producing a micro-budgeted film than the one writer-director Damien Giglietta employed on his first feature, it’s hard to imagine.
Giglietta shot the crime thriller Tkg: The Kids of Grove in 23 days, spread between August and October last year to accommodate the schedule of his Dop George Davis, who was shooting Foxtel/Network 10’s Gogglebox.
He kept a tight lid on costs by drawing on the resources of Fusion Entertainment Group, which includes studios and performers and music academies, where he is the director of operations (currently on a sabbatical as he finishes the film).
Damien, Davis and Peter McIntosh, his partners in 88 to 1 Productions, self-funded the upfront production budget of $80,000 and then spent a further $28,000 on post including the original score by Jeenyis.
He figures the production will break even after it generates revenues...
