Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: $50 Billion of Advice in One Book* Have you ever wondered why some books and stories are adapted into movies, and others aren't? Or wished you could sit down and pick the brains of the people whose stories have been adapted--or the screenwriters, producers, and directors who adapted them? Author John Robert Marlow has done it for you. He spoke to book authors, playwrights, comic book creators and publishers, as well as Hollywood screenwriters, producers and directors responsible for adapting fictional and true stories into Emmy-winning TV shows, Oscar-winning films, billion-dollar megahits and smaller independents. Then he talked to the entertainment attorneys who made the deals. He came away with a unique understanding of adaptations--an understanding he shares in this book: which stories make good source material (and why); what Hollywood wants (and doesn't); what you can (and can't) get in a movie deal; how to write and pitch your story to maximize the chances of a Hollywood adaptation--and how much (and when) you can expect to be paid. *This book contains the distilled experience of creators, storytellers and others whose works have earned over $50 billion worldwide. Whether you're looking to sell film rights, adapt your own story (alone or with help), or option and adapt someone else's property--this book is for you.

Book Synopsis Money for Your Movie by : Robert L McCullough
Download or read book Money for Your Movie written by Robert L McCullough and published by . This book was released on 2020-05-08 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An estimated 50,000 screenplays are registered with the Writers Guild America every year. When someone goes to the trouble and expense of protecting their work with WGA registration, that's an indication of serious intent; these folks want to see their script produced.If you're one of those screenwriters or filmmakers with the dream of seeing your story produced and projected on movie screens around the world, you know that having a great script isn't really enough. You may even have trouble getting anyone in "the industry" to simply read and consider your screenplay for production. That's the norm in today's movie-making pipeline: it's essentially a closed shop unless you have successful (profitable to financiers) films in your credit history. The only way around this Catch-22 is to produce your own film from material you truly believe in. But the stumbling block faced by everyone with a great script in their hands is that it takes money to independently produce a film of any quality...lots of money. FINDING THAT MONEY SO YOU CAN MAKE YOUR FILM IS WHAT THIS BOOK IS ALL ABOUT.Raising the money you need to make your movie is no longer the impossible task it once was. You only need to find those individuals with money they're willing to risk, and then convince them that your film has a reasonable chance of returning their investment plus some net profit attached.Does that sound impossible?Well, it's not. Mark Stouffer has raised millions of dollars from private individuals for his movies, and he's done it repeatedly. Now, for the first time, he shows you exactly how you can raise the money you need to make your films.All you have to do is pay attention and carefully follow the 7 Steps to Raising Money for Your Movie in this book.Nobody said that making a movie-or raising the money to finance your filmmaking venture-was easy. But it can be done...and you can do it exactly the way the author has done it.More than once, Stouffer started from absolute Ground Zero with nothing more than a telephone and blank paper on his desk. He's gone from "idea" to . . . to script . . . to business plan . . . to pitch . . . to production financing . . . to final cut . . . to distribution deal . . . to the red carpet. Asking others for money so that you can make your movie may sound like an impossible challenge. But if you use the tactics, strategies, and principles in this book, you will be an undeniable force. You will raise the money you need, and you will make your movie!
Book Synopsis Micro-Budget Filmmaking by : Chuck Facas
Download or read book Micro-Budget Filmmaking written by Chuck Facas and published by . This book was released on 2014-02 with total page 140 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Film shoots are stressful. Believe me. They're a crazy combination of time restraints, money issues, equipment malfunctions, coordinating schedules and, of course, art. That's why you need to know as much as you can before going into it. In Micro-Budget Filmmaking, I walk you through the entire filmmaking process and let you know what to expect and how to deal with it.Can you make a professional feature film for little to no money? Yes But it would take a lot of practice, planning, and knowhow. It's definitely possible, though, especially with the great cameras available today. The same goes for lighting and sound equipment. In fact, you could even use your phone. (In my last film, we used an iPhone in an emergency.) And after that, all you need is a computer. So you really can make a high quality film for little to no money. It's not easy, but it's possible.But even if you know how to do it, there's still one thing left: the script. Whether you have $10 or $10 million, if your script stinks then your film will stink. Guaranteed. So all you aspiring filmmakers out there, take your time writing or finding a great script.Before making my first feature, I read a lot of filmmaking books to help prepare. But out of the 10+ books I read, only one was somewhat useful. It's called "From Reel to Deal" (Dov Simens), but even that wasn't detailed enough and it certainly didn't prep me for a real film shoot.This is truly the only filmmaking book you need. Everything is covered, including over 70 FULL COLOR HD PHOTOS so you can SEE what to do rather than READ what to do. All aspects of filmmaking are explained in detail; like how to write a great screenplay and format it in a text editor, how to direct like a pro, how to cast the best actors and get great performances, how to capture the right shots, how to choose the right equipment, how and when to light the set, how to properly record sound, how to create a slick edit, how to deal with adversity on the set, and much much more.So whether or not you're the next Steven Spielberg, you'll learn everything you need to know about making high-quality films on a micro-budget. But... I really hope you ARE the next Steven Spielberg. We can sure use some better movies out there.Best, chuck facasABOUT THE AUTHORChuck Facas has been involved with independent film for over 20 years - writing, producing, directing and scoring alongside some of the most respected names in the business.

His experience, observations and practical advice reveals the raw truth about an important art form that has been hijacked, over-romanticized and betrayed by everyone from the mainstream media to its very own champions. This book is about real filmmaking. If you are thinking about making an independent film, you must read this book." Brian Johnson, author, screenwriter, and director "Angry or not, Kelley Baker knows his stuff, and he tells it all in this book that's part indie film war story, part instructional manual for true independents, and part furious rant. It's always entertaining, and it might just tick you off, but - most important - the advice contained within these pages will help you get your film made. Anyone reading this book can tell Baker truly wants to help passionate wannabe filmmakers realize their creative visions without going bankrupt or making the kinds of mistakes they can't afford to make." Chris Hansen, Writer/Director The Proper Care and Feeding of an American Messiah. & Endings. Kelley Baker is the Angry Filmmaker. But his independent films are not angry, they're honest. He's angry at the state of independent film. For Baker, it's about telling the story, not what actors are starring in it. From making award winning short films to the trials and tribulations of making three independent features with tiny budgets and no financial backing. Kelley lays it all out. Dealing with the "Independent Film World" and the lies they tell. His films have been seen all over the world and no one has ever guessed his budgets or the struggles of making them look as good as they do. This book takes you step by step through making films on very little money, interspersed with tales of how the business really operates and the frustrations of being a Real Independent Filmmaker. Like any good survivalist, Kelley Baker doesn't beat around the bush - he gets right down to the nitty-gritty heart of the matter right way. His 12 chapter Survival Guide is a compact, no-holds-barred 12-step program to creating what Baker calls "The Extreme No-Budget Film." Baker is on fire about making films.

One of the best books on making your way through the independent filmmaking jungle with justifiably-angry filmmaker Kelley Baker as your top-notch guide: Funny, profane and committed to telling the unblemished truth. Don't make your next movie until you've read this terrific book. John Gaspard, Author, Digital Filmmaking 101, Fast, Cheap and Under Control, and Fast, Cheap and Written That Way. This is a killer book. It tells you what your teachers can't, because they haven't done it. It tells you what your friends can't, for the same reason. Jammed with tons of useful advice, Baker's book is an invaluable "think before you shoot" guide for beginning filmmakers, as well as people who've been around the block, but need a refresher course. William M. Akers, author of Your Screenplay Sucks! 100 Ways To Make It Great Finally, a film resource that tells it like it is! As a film festival director, I watch hundreds (if not thousands) of films a year - some good, many flawed.
