If a short film is created without the involvement of a large studio or production group, it is known as an independent film. There is a wide range of budgets for independent films, ranging from the thousands of dollars ("micro-budget") to the tens of millions of dollars ("small budget"). There are a number of examples of independent films that had budgets in excess of $15 million, such as The Blair Witch Project (1999), Juno (2007), and Slumdog Millionaire (2008)--all of which are regarded to be indie films.
