Cantor’s original budget was $12,000 (equivalent to $14,834 in 2022), provided by Maker Studios. When the production team continued “having more good ideas that we wanted to bring to fruition” like the aerialists and LaBeouf himself, Cantor provided the remaining $8,000 (equivalent to $9,889 in 2022).
