In this book you'll learn much about how the modern movie business works - so you'll know what to expect.
Now, it could be that certain movie insiders would prefer you didn't read this book - because it tells you the truth about the movie-making system. You'll discover how films are made, how the money is raised for them, and where writers sit in the hierarchy of film-making - letting you know what to expect and how, if you want, to use the system to your advantage.
In this book you will learn:
- Reference
- Movies & video
- Screenwriting
- Film
- Performing arts
- Television
- Video
- Education & teaching
- Humor & entertainment
I wrote this book because there is a misconception out there that film producers are swamped with good screenplays. The truth is, most producers spend a good deal of their time looking for screenplays that will work for their resources. Therefore, if your goal is to write films that will get made, you need to stop thinking like a writer and start thinking like a producer. How much will it cost to make your film? How many locations are there? Does your screenplay have expensive visual effects?
