About this listen

NEW DARK AGES--How a Punk Movie Emerald Cities Got Its Improv, is a bold new addition to Rick Schmidt's how-to books about moviemaking, that includes Feature Filmmaking at Used-Car Prices and Extreme DV (Penguin/Random House Books). NEW DARK AGES lets the reader participate in Rick's IMPROV decision-making process as he applies his stream-of-consciousness approach to solving moviemaking problems, where the filmmaker must battle his/her movie into existence, often with little money and little time to complete the task. Readers can learn from Rick's "open universe" approach, where he dares to proceed against all odds. "This is a fun read. How Schmidt overcomes obstacles, physical and mental, is a miracle of inventiveness, imagination, perseverance and determination matter-of-factly remembered and told. The New Dark Ages vividly catalogues the everyday efforts required to bring forth his indie film-making odyssey Emerald Cities and in the process (as an aside) also his successful book Feature Filmmaking at Used-Car Prices. " -- Bibbi Lee, translator, "NOTHING GROWS BY MOONLIGHT" by Torborg Nedreaas, and author, "A WEEK OF MENUS/Chateau de Lesvault," and "Once Every Two Weeks." Rick's bestselling how-tos, have helped launch the careers of numerous future Hollywood moviemaker, including writer/director Kevin Smith, co-writer/co-director Eduardo Sanchez (THE BLAIR WITCH PROJECT, filmmaker Tom DiCillo (LIVING IN OBLIVION), actor Vin Diesel and many others. Hopefully, NEW DARK AGES will also help new readers become successful moviemakers, in the emerging markets of streamed movies for home viewing (Netflix, Amazon Prime Video), and beyond. "Without Rick's book, CLERKS would have been an idea that never made it past this page." - Kevin Smith "The book ("Feature Filmmaking at Used-Car Prices," by Rick Schmidt) changed my life." --Vin Diesel Art Celebrity City
