This book is a very detailed checklist of all aspects to keep in mind when creating a short film, pointing out common pitfalls and generally serving as a map of the whole process. I'll keep it at hand during my next project.
Great resource

I've read a lot of these books lately, and this is far and away the best of them. It has just the right amount of detail as well as being an easy read. It is extraordinarily practical and runs over many of the details that the other books I've read have skipped over. If you're making your first short film, this is the book to get, hands down!

As an actor, interested in all aspects of film, I cannot imagine a more detailed and succinct introduction to this world. David Irving and Peter Rea have found a way to clarify all the difficult areas of film direction and production in one small wonderful book. All film students will be grateful.
