I'm confused. What does budget have to do with using Blender? I thought a big movie budget is needed mainly for the labor and artistry, and comparatively little goes into software licensing. Is that not the case?

Plenty of good films have been made with very small budgets. If you are shooting on a consumer DSLR or even phones then Blender is a godsend.

If you have RRR's budget you can easily waste more money explaining to the lawyers and accountants that something is free. The decisions is purly on which software is better.

You should be confused. My thinking was unclear and you are quite right.
