5.0 out of 5 stars This is a Must Have book for low budget Movies, Jul 17 2004
By Juan Leonffu (Oceanside, CA United States) - See all my reviews
This book is incredible. The author has gone out of his way to even measure the material on how to built your own lighting. This book has help me create night and day diferences on my movies. I've learn so much from it and showed me more tricks that i've been able to compile in all my years of shooting.

I would recomend this book for anyone as this book shows you in detail step by step with photos on how to make all the must equiptment to make your movie look and like the big $$ equiptment.

GREAT, GREAT, GREAT book.. THANKS TO THE AUTHOR.

5.0 out of 5 stars Don't start your own low -budget film without it..., Jul 1 2004
By A Customer
The author shows make-yourself tools, tips and tricks on moviemaking. The book goes through many interesting ideas and projects and is very dense with great info, both technical and real world. The pictures and descriptions are clear. The post-production chapters, although brief, have some clever and helpful techniques. I've begun working on making the reflector and his instructions make it easy and step by step.

This is a book you use as a reference, it's not a riveting read! But if you've been wanting to make you're own low-budget films, this book will save you countless hours of head-scratching. He figures out most of the problems you will run into and offers clear and intelligent solutions. The content is excellent. I've found other books on this topic to maybe be more inspirational but this book has helped me more than others with "The Nuts and Bolts" of making my own films. It's aptly titled... It's not one of those books that you won't be able to put down, but the author is a good teacher, if a bit dry. This is a book you should definitely buy and read before you start making your own films. This guy has figured out most of the problems so you won't have to...

If you are already making films, but are looking for new ideas and solutions to all the little problems that indie filmakers run into...then you should read this book too.

I think this book is a must own for anyone that wants to make their own films, wants them to look professional, but doesn't have a lot of money to spend.
