I read recently that Americans
are buying used cars for an average of
S
12,000,
and I thought. Why
dont
they take the bus to work
and make a feature film instead?
For the price
oí
a used ear-about
$12,000—
you can make a feature
film ii you have the right know-how. In Featuie Filmmaking at used-
Cai
Prices, award-winning independent filmmaker Rick Schmidt
provides that know-how. He shows you:
How to select and write a story that can be produced on a tight budget
How to rally a filmmaking team through creative contracts
How to shoot and edit with an original style
Where to find markets for your finished film
How to deal with agents
How to make a collaborative feature
This fully updated edition also contains extensive new material on:
Digital video
(DV)
technology and what it offers low-budget
and no-budget filmmakers
Making the most of the Internet as an information resource
With step-by-step instructions and summary checklists, and without
the complicated technical details that only add to the cost, Feature
Filmmaking at Used-Car Prices will support you spiritually, psycholop
ically, factually, and technically as you take the bus ana make your film.
Without Rick s book, Clerks would have been an idea that never made
it past this page. -kevin smith,
writer-director of Clerks, Chasing Amy, and Dogma
