The advent of digital equipment has democratized film and music production, allowing people with limited budgets to realize their creative vision. This has led to the growth of independent cinema and independent record labels in the past years.
However, unbeknownst to many, the actual shoot and recording only take up a small portion of a creative project. The bulk comes afterward, with editing, mixing, post processing, and mastering needing as much as several months, depending on the scope of material. Post-production further entails using high-quality equipment to dial in the exact end product - equipment that can be prohibitively expensive for most individuals.
