"Seminal." - New York Times   "Gold-standard technical reference book for filmmakers." -Boston Globe   "The bible - updated." - The Independent   "This is an essential book." -Self-Reliant Filmmaking   "You need this book. Billed as the authoritative guide to filmmaking from fundraising to distribution, the book achieves this in clear, accessible language using current up-to-date information. It's easy to see why this has become a standard text in many film schools. A gilt-edged investment for aspiring and beginning filmmakers and it would not be out of place in the libraries of experienced professionals either." -James MacGregor, Netribution.co.uk   "This edition of the book is awesome. I don't know how you managed it. Such a mass of information so expertly organized and so clearly presented! Amazing." -Alfred Guzzetti, Professor, Harvard University   "Anyone who is serious about learning the language and techniques of this art, whether amateur or professional, must have this comprehensive reference."   - Bookviews    "Speaking as a member of the 'figure it out yourself' camp, I consider most 'technical' reference books to be nothing more than leisure reading.

  • Excellent overview

    The Filmmaker's Handbook gives a great overview of filmmaking from the indie to the pro. Granted, it is a bit out of date. But the principles are solid and timeless. Few people will plow through all 818 pages, but they will find it a useful reference.

  • the encyclopedia for film production

    This is a very comprehensive reference book for film production in the digital age. It is not a "compelling" read because reference material rarely is. But that's not to say it's not a good book -- it is very informative and covers just about everything and functions best as a reference. It's called "handbook" after all.
