Learn to Speak Film

What goes into making a film? What is a film? This book looks at the entire process of what films are, what people who work in film do, and how you can make a movie yourself!

From looking at the "big picture" of how films emotionally move people to the nitty-gritty details, this book provides insight into every step of the process, including creating memorable sound, taking photographs, writing dialogue, receiving criticism, storyboarding-even descriptions of what a professional set looks like and how to throw a good "wrap party!" The '60s-esque graphics give this book an incredibly fun feel, with sidebars, quotes, tips, and lists bringing in additional insights. An absolutely fantastic book for anyone interested in filmmaking as a career or hobby. 96 pages, indexed, softcover.
