In the modern film making world, the term ‘low-budget’ can refer to anything from a $10 million indie flick to a student film produced on borrowed equipment with little to no money at all. Similarly, low budget filmmakers can range from seasoned auteurs attempting to shed the shackles of major studio control to novice talents trying to break into the industry. Designed for would-be filmmakers of all ages and experience levels, this book explains how to make a good, as well as commercially successful, low-budget movie in the current climate of mainstream, multi-million dollar Hollywood films. The purpose is not only to show low-budget filmmakers how to get movies made and distributed, but also how to maximize a film’s potential for significant profit. Written in practical, understandable terms, the book covers everything from commercially viable genres to the most efficient film and video formats, along with tips on hiring stars, pursuing investors, distributing and marketing a film, and keeping track of expenses.
