I recently decided to change careers and get into the business of movies and TV. My personal goal was to find a niche that would generate steady income, and I was not necessarily looking to express myself creatively. Coming from a real estate business background, I found this book to be highly technical and detailed on the business of movies and TV, from the organization of a production company, through sales markets, distribution strategies and commonly understood accounting practices. This was exactly the primer I needed, and it has brought me to the next level in my freshman year in this business.
This book is a fairly comprehensive introduction to the business of filmmaking. John J. Lee and Anne Marie Gillen have done a really thorough job describing how the motion picture industry functions and they provide a lot of first hand knowledge about best practices for producers. I would recommend it to anybody interested in working in any segment of the industry.
This updated and new version of the book is a complete reworking and update of the previous two editions. Extremely well written, with the latest information on how to finance and gain distribution in the current economy, and have a successful film.
Each of the authors have a proven track record, and great examples that a new producer can relate to.
A must read. Highly recommend it to both new and experienced film makers. The business of film is fast changing, and I praise the author for keeping up with the times.
This book gives you great insight into the film industry. I read the entire thing in less then a week, I couldn't put it down.
If you want to know anything about the film industry, this is the book to get!
Exactly what I was looking for!!!
