If you are new to the Hollywood Mogul games, please don't make a $300 million sci-fi epic the moment the game's installed. Hollywood Mogul 4 is a fairly complex business management simulation.
Make a few smaller movies first at Difficulty Level 1. Give yourself some time to understand the attribute rating nuances for Visual Effects and Story Scope, genre, and character development, pace, plot twists, sub-plots, and Set Design. Not to mention how those things will relate to the Director's ratings in Perfectionist and Script As Written, On-Budget, and Effects, as well as if it's better to cast the lead role with a talent that has a high Sex Appeal rating but a low Humility rating because their Screen Presence is a little lacking.
Also, the necessary Advertising Budget will bankrupt your studio.
So please don't make a $300 million sci-fi epic right off the bat.
