This is a comprehensive bible to low-budget film production for emerging and professional producers. Structured to guide the listener through production meetings, every aspect of the film-production process is outlined in detail. Invaluable checklists - which begin 12 weeks before shooting and continue through principal (and secondary) photography and postproduction - keep the filmmaker on track and on target.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

This was perfect for me. I am new to the industry and definitely a whole picture and big picture person. This book not only made practical sense, there are downloads available too.

This book has opened my eyes. This book sums up 4 plus years of the film world experience. Of course you have to apply this book to your project(s) to fully grasp what it says. However, this book made me feel like I was a 6 year veteran in film. I love it.

Grateful.

I truly loved this book. It covered all the nuances of producing that I wish had been covered in my *actual classes* on the subject. It also provided a ton of great example paperwork. Truly a trove of useful and important information. However!! I will be returning the audio book and trading it in for a hard copy. Budget sheets are pretty dry listening, and I'd much prefer a physical book to refer to sections quickly and visually now that I've listened through once.

Very technically formatted book. The reader at least makes it enjoyable. I highly recommend for anyone looking to do producer work.

Excellent detail and structure

If you plan on, or happen to fall into film and video production as I did, read this book, then read it again every time you have a new production until it is all instinct. Download the pdf and study it. This book will help you skip a lot of misdirected energy, and huge mistakes, just read it.

Read this one first

When you go to school or workshop, they’ll go deep inside what is producers job what tools you have to use and how to produce. What you’ll hear here is very basic information which you would totally get having critical thinking. This book will not be a school for you, it is just general recommendations from personal experience that don’t even go in depth. If you’re just thinking about being a producer, that could be your starting point, maybe to get a general idea.

Very basic
