The Loneliness of the Low-Budget Filmmaker: Six Projects that Shook My World

All nightmares start as dreams! In THE LONELINESS OF THE LOW-BUDGET FILMMAKER: SIX PROJECTS THAT SHOOK MY WORLD, the author walks the reader through the background and production process of six of his low-budget productions. If you feel motivated to shoot films instead of people (recommended), are new to filmmaking or simply want to compare your good and bad experiences to someone else’s, this book is for you. The author does not give you lessons, provide extensive annotated bibliographies or tell you this book is a cheap alternative to NYU’s film school. He shows you what could go wrong and right, what has worked for him and what has been an incredible disaster–and you can draw your own conclusions, starting with a cautionary tale about the acting profession as practiced by ancillary breathing nightmares and the deceitful and bloated “film festival circuit” and the woefully non-existent, non-committal assistance of state “film commissions.”
