Production Hosting
Sandust Productions is opening its doors to producers who are looking to stretch their production dollars. If you’ve got a small budget and you want to blow people away, you should seriously consider shooting in Austin. Austin is an affordable place to film, with unbelievably diverse locations and professional crews. In fact, Austin was again ranked as the No. 1 city to live and make movies in by Movie Maker Magazine. “Austin is the prime example of a city,” they said, “that has caught onto a deceptively simple tactic… cooperation.”
We are capable of providing everything from equipment and crew to visual effects and editing. We can help you develop and execute all aspects of your project at affordable prices. Sandust Productions really is a “one-stop shop” for the independent filmmaker. It is imperative that a motion picture, despite its budget, looks and feels like a movie that has been made with much more. It isn't easy, but it can be done. By fusing state-of-the-art technology with practical experience and creative energy, Sandust Productions can stand and deliver.
Bring your key people and see what your money can do in here in Texas. Sandust can house up to eight out-of-town cast and crew members. We have a large conference room, a 20'x20' studio space, and a complete post facility with five Final Cut Studio/After Effects systems. The latter comes with several terrabytes of shared, high-speed, raid5 storage. In terms of equipment, we have a full compliment of in-house production gear, including the recently released and highly sought-after Red One 35mm 4k digital cinema camera, which means we can shoot 35mm quality at indie prices. We also have relationships with several local rental houses that can provide anything your production needs, from small 1-ton indie packages to a full 10-ton package and everything in between.
In short, we know Austin production and everything you need to know about local crew, casting, and locations. If you want union people, we can get them, but Texas is a right-to-work state, so you don’t have to. If you need just the right local talent to round out your cast, we can have experienced and talented people waiting when you get here. If you want the kind of unbelievable historical locations and sweeping vistas that you just can’t find or afford in the big city, they’re right here waiting. From permits to post, we know how to deliver the highest quality product with the highest caliber of professionalism. The bottom line is we can take your project from script to screen on budget and on time. You bring your vision and your people and well take care of the rest.
We look forward to hearing about your project and providing you with more information about how we can help your money go farther by filming in central Texas. Please contact us if you have any questions.
