TABLE OF CONTENTS
The Experience of Sensory Detail
Introduction to Short Films
Big Tricks, Small Packages
Hey, you, with the camera. Yeah, you—the aspiring filmmaker. We’ve been watching you, trying to get your attention for a while now. Want to know something?
We believe in you.
That’s right. You probably didn’t realize this, but we know you’re a little lost right now, not knowing how to use that camera, attempting to figure out what kind of story to tell, planning a budget (that you don’t have) for set, makeup, actors, editing, sound and light. You’ve really created an unreachable fantasy. Anyway, listen up. You can make quality indie short films. You really can.
For starters, you need to get your butt off the couch. Uh oh. You’re not on the couch? You’re locked in a closet? You’re actually sitting in the dark thinking your movie dreams might be over? Is it that bad? Stop this nonsense.
Quit crying about not having a $25,000 budget for that short film you always wanted to make about two psycho lovers, or the one about that zombie who can live without his head while wandering aimlessly through Hollywood searching for it. You don’t need that much money to pull it off. And no more whining. A film school degree is not the only thing that will help you hone those indie filmmaking skills you desperately need to grow.
