Synopsis

The Complete Idiot's Guide® to Filmmaking will do for aspiring filmmakers what The Complete Idiot's Guide® to Screenwriting is doing for aspiring screenwriters. In fact, this book should have the added luxury of also appealing to aspiring screenwriters, especially those who have struggled to get their work purchased, who have considered trying to produce and direct their own screenplays. Regardless of motivation for picking up The Complete Idiot's Guide® to Filmmaking readers will find it to be the most comprehensive book on the subject--and on two different levels. First, it will cover every aspect of the filmmaking process, from script to pre-production, to directing, to post-production, to distribution. Secondly, it will cover virtually every form of filmmaking, including independent features, Hollywood films, television movies, documentaries, corporate and educational films, "reality films," digital/Internet films, and music videos.
