"Detox" FX estimate

To see how we were doing keeping Detox low in the budget arena, I decided to get a quote from a popular FX house to handle the various effects. I'm not spilling any beans on what those effects are, nor who quoted it, nor what the amount was... I'll just say I was pleasantly surprised at what the estimate came back at. Something that's entirely doable should we actually get this thing off the ground as a self-funded project.

Ah yes, the prospect of producing this ourselves. The very first rough estimate seems doable, but there are so many elements that need to be figured out - such as LOCATION - which will really decide if we can get it off the ground without "studio" funding.

So much vagueness.
