Write a paragraph which sums up the impact of having a micro budget used for tank 432

Having a micro-budget for film productions means that you have less money to make a decent film. This is because you will not have as much money for production as you still need to spend money on marketing. Investors may not want to invest if the film is a micro budget film as they may not want to get into financial trouble.
