All 3 [I'm Not Even Human](/films/I'm_Not_Even_Human), [The Package, The Car & The Time Is Running Out](/films/The_Package,_The_Car_And_The_Time_Is_Running_Out) and [Moria's Race](/films/Moria's_Race) were made on, what I consider to be, *zero* budget. It's a lie. Nothing costs *zero*. It's just it costed me small enough amount that I didn't even needed to calculate it. But now with my next movie project slowly moving into \"Development Hell\" I need to take budgeting seriously.", "author": {"avatar": "https://blenderdumbass.org/pictures/favicon.png", "bio": "Aka: J.Y.
