Practical advice from people who actually do it

Think this book is boring, cry me a freaking river losers. Making movies is not exciting, it's long hours and too soon deadlines and ego, ego, ego. This is how you do it. This is how The Blair Witch Project and dozens of other low/no budget videos are able to be made. I found the book to be priceless.

Excellant

A general overview of the low budget filmmaking process loaded with pertinent information and technical advice. Areas of interest: starting your own production company and an appendix containing several sample contracts. Includes interviews with the likes of George A. Romero, Tobe Hooper, Sam Raimi, Lizzie Borden, Tom Savini and Oliver Stone. It cries out for an update(its eight years old)but its an excellant exploration into the world of filmmaking nonetheless. Worth the dough.
