Synopsis
Full of advice for would-be filmmakers. Readers will learn how to make their script work, how to finance their film, how to deal with their producer, how to deal with their crew, how to cast for their film, how to handle post production and how to thrive on the festival circuit. How Not To Make A Short Film is energetically written and peppered with great anecdotes and interviews with other filmmakers who have struggled with their art. This is both a must-read for aspiring moviemakers and a thrilling look behind the scenes for enthusiastic moviegoers., Anyone can make a short film, right? Just grab some friends and your handheld and you can do it in a weekend or two before being accepted to a slew of film festivals, right? Wrong. Roberta Munroe screened short film submissions at Sundance for five years, and is an award-winning short filmmaker in her own right. So she knows a thing or two about how not to make a short film. From the first draft of your script to casting, production, editing, and distribution, this is your one-stop primer for breaking into the business. Featuring interviews with many of today's most talented writers, producers, and directors, as well as revealing stories (e.g., what to do when the skinhead crack addict next door begins screaming obscenities as soon as you call "action") from the sets of her own short films, Roberta walks you through the minefield of mistakes that an aspiring filmmaker can make--so that you don't have to make them yourself.
