Summary: A great guide for all levels of expertise
Comment: Rick Schmidt has written a great book. Having owned the earlier version of this book, which was amazing, I can safely call this new version the best book on filmmaking. He advises based on personal experience. He talks in depth of the benefits of shooting in DV. Simply put, spectacular.

Summary: Congratulations Rick !
Comment: Congratulations Rick !
I commend you on all your efforts, perseverance and your success, as I recently purchased your book. I am inspired by your strong will and determination to show people that Hopes & Dreams do come true! Reading the Preface gave me a great deal of insight into pursuing my 23 year dream of producing my own feature film.
I researched several books (online & at the bookstores) before purchasing yours, I am very happy with my choice.
You have written this book as if you are with the person and coaching them along, a very nice personal touch,
Once again Rick, Congratulations on your success!
Cheers: Steve in BC.

Summary: Good on setups but a bit technically challanged
Comment: I would recommend this book on the bases that if you want to get into film making then you should see how this guy went about doing it. It is not a bad book but is a bit technically challanged. For instance the writer has a huge section on building your own editing suite for actually cutting the film by hand. This may be good for some film makers but you will certainly get better results if you meet up with an actual editor who will cut your film for you while you sit by his side.
The book basically tells you what you need to get up and started and how to go about shooting your first film on a low budget. This book is pretty much written in a "One-man-band" sort of fashion and although it is possible to make a film this way you would do a lot better by actually meeting up with people who know a little bit about film making too - probably in a film school or weekend course. Anyhow, lots of helpful hints and tips but you will need other books to supplement this one and you will need a bit more help from experienced film makers (even amateur ones) to help you on your way.
