About this product
Product Information
Every year, hundreds of American film schools graduate thousands of aspiring filmmakers. Very few of them, however, leave school prepared for the challenges that await or are fortunate enough to secure the financial backing of a major studio. This practical guide provides all necessary information for newcomers to the profession to get a movie made, information often left out of film school curricula. Topics include finding a project, breaking down a script, creating a production board, casting, budgeting, scouting locations, scheduling, dealing with actors, establishing set protocol, marketing, and many others. Throughout, real-life examples vividly illustrate the subject at hand. Bridging the gap between learning the craft of moviemaking and exercising that craft in the entertainment world, this manual is essential for all who seek a career in film. Instructors considering this book for use in a course may request an examination copy here.

All five stars for the vendor. Sadly let down by the, so called, AMAZON delivery driver in England OX28 area who left the book on the doorstep next to the VERY CLEAR sign saying 'If no one is in please leave in lockable parcel box to the right'. Luckily it was noticed and retrieved. It would have been very annoying for my book to travel all the way from USA to GB just to be stolen due to the incompetence of an AMAZON delivery driver who either can't read or can't be bothered!!!...
