'An easily assimilated, fact packed tutorial with all the dynamism and panache of a contemporary novel.' Mike von Joel in 'State' 'A riveting read, packed with rare anecdotes and expertly chosen examples from across the film world. And by weaving throughout tales from the likes of Cocteau, Bunuel or Fellini, Clifford Thurlow provides a refreshing and much needed focus on the artistic and creative - as well as the technical - aspects of filmmaking.' Nic Wistreich, development director of Shooting People and co-author of Get Your Film Funded 'Nobody should think about making a short film without reading this first. Thurlow takes new filmmakers through the steps of shooting film in a way that will save time and money. Plus it's a good read!' Producer Jennifer Fate Velaise, Fate Productions, Los Angeles 'Clifford Thurlow's book is the definitive must have for any filmmaker contemplating making and marketing a short.' Elliot Grove, Director of Raindance: The Voice of Independent Film. 'Making Short Films' is destined to become the bible for new filmmakers....Thurlow passes on his insider tips neatly packaged in simple chapters that will guide the novice over the minefield of filmaking and inspire them to go out and make movies' Terence Doyle, New Nude Mag 'Making Short Films will be your ideal guide and will take you right through the process.' Richard Bell, Writing Magazine 'Reading almost like a novel, Making Short Films weaves together anecdotes and film history to illustrate the filmmaking process, citing example from both classic cinema and contemporary films. Ultimately, Thurlow's book is meant to inspire. He emphasises that short filmmaking is primarily a creative and collaborative exercise, not financially profitable, and should be considered a chance to learn skills and stretch your imagination. Thurlow's emphasis is not on technical advice, but on the creative and artistic considerations of short filmmaking. As one of the directors that Thurlow interviewed in the book comments, "People try to formalise the process, but it is not about formulas, it's about communication...it is your emotional input, your veracity, that will make a film work."'
