If your budget is under $625,000 (per SAG Low Budget Agreement) and you plan to have 48 or less shoot days,
then the Gorilla Standard Edition is for you.
The Standard Edition is designed for "micro-budget" films. It has all the features of the Pro Edition, but is meant for real independent films,
limited to tracking one project, up to $625,000 budget and 48 shoot days.
If you are using another currency, budget is limited to 625,000 in that currency. If you decide to make
another film or video, you can easily upgrade to the Pro Edition at any time without any loss of data.
