Whether your goal is to break into Hollywood or the local film festival, post to the Internet, or simply to prove to everyone (and yourself) that you were meant to make films. Stop banging your head against the wall -- Make Your Movie Yourself! "Naked Filmmaking" is newly revised & expanded for DSLR filmmakers, with more than 50% more information than the first edition of Naked Filmmaking (first edition contained 65,000 words - new edition contains over 101,000 words) and over 100 new photographs. One-Man Filmmaker MIKE CARROLL guides you through his proven step-by-step process of how to single-handedly make a feature-length film without going bankrupt in the process. Mike has single-handedly made three features as writer-producer-director-cinematographer-sound recordist-editor, all of which have played in film festivals on the big screen. Mike shows step-by-step how to: Write a script that you can afford to make. Cast & direct actors. Choose cameras & lenses. Shooting methods & lighting. Know the difference in microphones & record perfect sound. Editing - it's more that just cutting shots together. Finding music & creating sound effects. Build a website to promote your film, design a poster & publicity for festivals. Self-distribute your film to the world. "This is not so much a How-To book for making movies, because there are plenty of those out there-almost all of which seem to say the same thing. This is a How-I-Do book, how I make a film-from concept to production to editing to how I design the poster for screenings-because I think my method is quite a bit different from most other filmmakers. And a heck of a lot less expensive!" Mike even includes detailed budget breakdowns of his two feature films to show exactly how you can make a movie for $10,000 - or $6,000 - or less! 20-page screenplay extract - with frame blow-ups - from Mike's film "Nightbeats." Illustrated with over 250 photographs.

To make a movie is much more about your philosophy around getting things done, than it is about your level of skill, knowledge, money or time. If you have ever thought about making a movie, or you want to make your first movie, Making a Low-Budget Movie will take you through the process of how without formal education you can think about what filmmaking is, its basic elements, and go from concept to distributing a film in within a year, or less. The author shares insight on what to prepare for when you decide to make a movie, how to pull the trigger with your imperfect ideas, and why your mindset is the most important factor in finishing your project successfully.Structured in three sections, before, during and after, the book explores the meaning of film, ways to think about how to come up with ideas for stories, and what to tell yourself once you have left the dock.A book to consult when you are stuck with ideas and don't know where to begin, the idea for this book was to demystify the actual process of making a movie in today's world, and hopefully remind ourselves that it can be much more than talking heads, blows and fx; ultimately, one fascinating way for anyone to explore the human experience.

"Anatomy of a Guerrilla Film: The Making of RADIUS," does something that no other how-to filmmaking book does: it teaches filmmaking principles by taking readers through the process of making a real-world guerrilla film and then lets you watch the final film - included on an accompanying DVD - so readers can actually see the results of all the decisions, compromises, setbacks, and victories. First-time filmmaker and author Helmut Kobler believes that the best way to learn is by watching other people do something and then learning from their successes and mistakes. That philosophy is the concept behind this book. Written in clear, straightforward language for the first-time or beginning filmmaker, "Anatomy of a Guerrilla Film: The Making of RADIUS," serves as a case-study for new filmmakers, allowing them to see the lessons and principles presented in the book come to life in the actual film. From start to finish, every step and process that encompasses making an independent film is covered, including preproduction, production, post production, and marketing and distribution. Different approaches to each step and process are covered, not just the approach used by the author. Behind-the-scenes footage and commentary by the author on the included DVD clearly illustrate the steps making this book the most unique and hands-on guide to guerrilla filmmaking.
