Practical up-to-date advice for the aspiring director, producer, or screenwriter

This third edition prepares independent or guerrilla filmmakers for the legal, financial, and organizational questions that can doom a project if unanswered.

This guide demystifies issues such as developing a concept, founding a film company, obtaining financing, securing locations, casting, shooting, granting screen credits, distributing, exhibiting, and marketing a film.

Packed with appendices to provide helpful samples and WGA definitions, this guide is essential for all indie filmmakers
