Description
Summary:Taking the reader from script to final product, Peter Rea and David Irving clearly illustrate all of the steps involved in pre-production, production, post production and distribution. Their unique two-fold approach looks at filmmaking from the perspectives of both producer and director and explains how their separate energies must combine in order to create a successful short film. There are extensive examples from two award-winning short narrative films (Lunch Date and Truman) and one short documentary (Mirror Mirror) and fascinating, insightful quotes from the filmmakers themselves describing the problems they encountered and how they solved them. Rounding out the book are stills and scripts from the three films, samples of various production forms, and appendices with information on festivals, grants, insurance and film schools.
