Hey, Dan MaxXx. "$0 budget" is an expression. It means really cheap/really micro-budget.

Lindbergh E Hollingsworth

I've done "zero budget" shorts, as we had all the gear, etc. But my zero budget did have a few expenses as I had a simple coffee set up with fruit, muffins, donuts, water, Gatorade, and sodas. Plus I paid for lunch. Crew of three, cast of three. If they show up the least you can do is feed them as it's "fuel" to keep them going.

Sam Sokolow

Totally agree, Lindbergh E Hollingsworth - you have to feed the cast and crew, especially if they are working for free.
