Their first film is a disaster, they can't sell it, their credit cards are maxed, they decide filmmaking isn't any fun and give up.</p> <p>At some time you've tried to learn a musical instrument or a new sport, and you remember how badly you did at first. Filmmaking is also a set of skills you'll need to learn before you start shooting or the results won't live up to your expectations and you'll be discouraged. Take the time to learn the basic skills. It's easier than learning a foreign language.</p> <p style="color: rgb(153, 51, 102); text-decoration: underline;"><strong>What is this site?</strong></p> <ul> <li>The single most comprehensive collection of filmmaking information on the net</li> <li>Free information on every aspect of filmmaking</li> <li>A portal to all the web's useful filmmaking sites.</li> <li>A way to avoid becoming a victim of an expensive film school</li> </ul> <br/> <h2 style="color: rgb(153, 51, 102); text-decoration: underline;">Film making - your first free lesson</h2> How can you become a fimmaker without spending $100,000 on film school? <p>Read articles on this site that interest you, study movies and access all the in-depth information linked to from this site.

You can contact me directly with specific questions.</p> <p>And, of course, you'll need to make movies!</p> <p>Most people imagine <strong>filmmaking</strong> is mostly about making films ... directing actors, shouting "action" and "cut" and all the glamour. While that is part of the job, in actuality that exciting phase is about 5% of the time spent.</p> <p>The biggest part of the indie moviemaking job is the <strong>development</strong>, or scriptwriting, phase where filmmakers typically spend one or more years looking for ideas and writing screenplays until they have a great script to film.</p> <p>Another six-months to a year is spent in <strong>pre-production</strong> gathering the resources, people and money, required to make the film.</p> <p>The exciting <strong>production</strong> phase of filmmaking, when the motion picture actually gets made using video cameras or other film equipment to do the cinematography, often lasts less than two-months. But round-the-clock activity takes all the energy you can muster.</p> <p>The <strong>post-production</strong> phase of filmmaking goes on for six-months to a year of editing and assembling the most effective presentation of the story.</p> <p>Finally another six-months to a year may be spent traveling the film festivals circuit and meeting with distributors while you search for a good deal <strong>selling the film</strong>.</p> <br/> <p><strong>Most successful filmmakers have several filmmaking projects in various phases of completion at any given time</strong> so the phases are all overlapped. Many story ideas are in development at the same time as a finished screenplay is in pre-production and a finished film is still making the festival rounds.</p> <p>Movie-making can be one of the most exciting things a person can be involved in. Sound like fun? Great! Then read on. Let's start your free film schooling.</p> <p><strong style="color: rgb(153, 51, 102); text-decoration: underline;">Goals and Plans</strong>: Your first step is to come up with some Goals and a Plan. All successful filmmakers started with some goals and a plan. Many of them used the same plan. There's no big secret to it. You'll learn the tried and true road in this section.</p> <p><strong style="color: rgb(153, 51, 102); text-decoration: underline;">Buzz</strong>: Next you need to understand what is involved in marketing and selling a film so you make sure your Great Idea is one that can be sold. Read this section to understand the important first steps necessary to improve the chances that your movie gets distributed.</p> <p><strong style="color: rgb(153, 51, 102); text-decoration: underline;">The Great Idea</strong>: You don't like boring movies, do you? No one else does either. The one, single key to success as a filmmaker is coming up with a truly <b>Great Idea</b> for a story. That's one thing that everyone in the movie business agrees on.</p> <p>You can have the biggest stars, the best direction, special effects, music, you name it, but if the story is lame you've got a flop! On the other hand if the story idea is truly great then even marginal acting and obviously low-budget production values won't stop people from wanting to see your movie. </p> <p><strong style="color: rgb(153, 51, 102); text-decoration: underline;">The Screenplay</strong>: Finally your Great Idea has to be turned into a great screenplay that will attract the talent and financing you'll need. This is such an important element that I devote more material to this subject than any other.</p> <p><br/> </p> <br/> <h2 style="color: rgb(51, 102, 255); text-decoration: underline; text-align: center;">Understanding Film Schools</h2> <h2 style="color: rgb(153, 51, 102); text-decoration: underline;">Introduction</h2> <p>Hundreds of thousand of people are employed in various aspects of the movie business and film school was the route in for many of them.</p> If you think you might enjoy a career in show business then the next few pages should prove helpful in picking your route to the inside. <p>Be sure to read the article on <strong>Why bother?</strong> to learn some of the pitfalls and misunderstandings about film school so you don't waste a lot of time and money.</p> <p>Also check out the article <strong>Film School On Your Couch</strong> for another good way to learn filmmaking by taking advantage of the many excellent commentaries and special features available on popular movie DVDs.</p> <br/> <b>he Filmmaker's Handbook</b> If you could only own one comprehensive book on the <strong>techniques</strong> of filmmaking this is the one it should be. Universally considered the "bible" of film production, adopted for use in film courses around the world, <em>The Filmmaker's Handbook</em> is the indispensable source of practical information and sound advice on the techniques and technologies needed to make movies.<br/> <br/> If film has a language, The Filmmaker's Handbook is your translation guide, dictionary, and phrase book. In over 600 pages, 18 chapters, and nine appendices, the authors detail virtually everything you need to know about filmmaking. There is probably more information here than anyone needs to know, from which lens to choose all the way through final editing and sound mixing. But too much information is not a bad thing. This is the kind of book that a blossoming filmmaker will grow into for many years to come.<br/> <br/> <b>The Complete Film Production Handbook</b> If you could only own one comprehensive book on the <strong>business</strong> of filmmaking (as opposed to the art and technology of making a film) this is the one it should be. Now in an updated and expanded third edition, <em>The Complete Film Production Handbook</em> by film production expert Eve Light Honthaner is a comprehensive, resource packed instructional reference enhanced with essential "need-to-know" ins and outs of the film business, including checklists, example schedules for pre-production and post-production, guidelines for insurance policies, talent management, immigration details applying to actors and other film industry workers crossing national borders, forms used for the Screen Actor's Guild (among others), basic production forms and deal memos, and a companion CD-ROM containing numerous useful documents in easily printable form.<br/> <br/> A "must-have" for anyone seriously considering producing a film for the first time, The Complete Film Production Handbook is a practical, accessible, and essential reference for novice filmmakers, and is a highly recommended resource for experienced movie producers, too.<br/> <br/> <br/> <div style="text-align: center; color: rgb(128, 0, 128); font-family: Times New Roman;"><font size="5"><a href="http://gozine.search4i.com" target="_blank" style="font-weight: bold;">Check Out Here For More Filmmaking Tips</a><br/> </font></div> <br/> <br/> <br/> Source : 4filmmaking.com<br/> <br/> <br/>
