Real world information for indie directors, covers packaging & supervision, script acronyms, pre-production, design, continuity, post production, and the nonstop diplomacy of directing a movie. Easy to read, illustrated with dozens of diagrams and screen shots from films and TV shows that the author directed, after honing his craft in Chicago, Los Angeles, San Francisco, London, Sydney, Amsterdam, and Cannes more than once. Nuts and bolts of making a feature film, directing professional actors and top technical people, spending serious money to make finished product on time and under budget, all summarized in this handy guide. Technology is wonderful, but the job of directing a movie hasn't changed, because it involves teamwork and practical affairs. The learning curve consists of absorbing the lingo of film production.

Page 1 starts the section on film form, essential stuff like continuity, moving shots, POV shots, match dissolve, contradiction [IMG2=JSON]{"data-align":"none","data-size":"full","src":"https:\/\/scontent-ort2-1.xx.fbcdn.net\/v\/t1.0-9\/19399585_229791757529856_5719536581116239051_n.jpg?oh=567090dfaecfc0271c5d672827d66eee&oe=59C8ECF5"}[/IMG2]
