Runaway production has many reasons for running away.
Does piracy cause  production to runaway ?
Every time someone downloads a movie for free, that is one DVD or Blu-Ray sale that is lost.
We lose money when our films our downloaded for free.
If you know anyone that does this, tell them that they are stealing!
If you are losing money, you have to figure out a way to make the same product cheaper or raise your prices (we all would be willing to pay $15.00 to see a movie wouldn’t we?).
If you can shoot somewhere that is cheaper , then it’s very simple.
You go where you think it might be cheaper to shoot your film  (I say where you think it might be cheaper will be explored in another blog posting).
Read this article and see what the Obama Administration is doing about it.
Your feedback is welcome and needed, thanks.
