If the idea is any good get a top pro to shoot it and selling the brodcast rights to TVX or Playboy will cover your budget. count on ?1500 per scene after editing mastering etc. Getting it done in Europe won't be that much cheaper and limits the sales because of language.
And I always shoot the stills as I go, get someone to pass me a stills camera before changing angle. Gonzo guys rarely cut to change angle they just give you a shot of the curtains or the floor.

Hi Matt,

I do have some advice about Eastern Europe, be prepared to be ripped off sounds harsh but i am talking from experiance

Dont know about the producers but theres a lot of scams out there to take your money

Also Poland, where i went, the language barrier was a big problem..

I cut my losses and oborten the mission ! after spunking a grand on flights, hotels & other expenses looking

I wouldnt write it off,

Maybe if you get contacts, people / agencys you can trust before hand it mightwork out..

If your shooting in the uk i'd be happy to help out with the shooting, have video lights and cam + vid cam

I would help out where needed ?100 for the ( day 6 hours ish )+ travel

If your interested drop me a line

Cheers

Bow

I'm also looking for partners for some ideas i have myself if you may be interested..
