Upon completing the script, Wan and Whannell had wanted to select an excerpt from their script, later to be known as <a href="/wiki/Saw_(2004_film)" class="mw-redirect" title="Saw (2004 film)">Saw</a> and film it to pitch their film to studios. With the help of <a href="/wiki/Charlie_Clouser" title="Charlie Clouser">Charlie Clouser</a>, who had composed the score for the film, and a few stand-in actors, Wan and Whannell shot the film with a relatively low budget. Whannell also decided to star in the film as <a href="/wiki/List_of_Saw_characters" title="List of Saw characters">Adam Stanheight</a>, one of the film's main protagonists.<a href="#cite_note-Saw_(2003)-13">[13]</a> After the release of the full-length Saw, the film was met with overwhelming success in the box office both domestically and internationally.

This was over $100 million more than the production budget.<a href="#cite_note-Saw_(2004)-14">[14]</a> This led the studio to <a href="/wiki/Green-light" class="mw-redirect" title="Green-light">green-light</a> the sequel <a href="/wiki/Saw_II" title="Saw II">Saw II</a> and later the rest of the <a href="/wiki/Saw_(franchise)" title="Saw (franchise)">Saw franchise</a>.
