From the Back Cover
This carefully structured book teaches a full range of filmmaking skills to anyone interested in creating short movies for private screenings, festivals, competitions, and broadcast on television or the web. From initial planning to assembling a cast and crew, you will discover how to get your movie up and running.
Find out where to look for inspiration, and how to develop the narrative and storyboard your movie. Put together a basic kit for shooting digitally or on film, and discover how to translate your vision by manipulating sound, images, movement, and lighting.
All essential equipment and techniques are clearly explained with diagrams and step-by-step photographs. From shooting footage to editing, laying down soundtracks, and adding special effects, this book teaches a wide range of pre- and post-production skills.
Practical projects and exercises give students hands-on experience for working in different genres, from ten-minute documentaries to pop videos, short dramas, and action sequences. There’s also advice on putting together a showreel and getting a finished film seen.
