WEST CITY FILMS

“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

“I was thrilled to find your book, which is a gem. No matter what corner of the subject I poked into, looking for cogent explanations, the Handbook passed with flying colors. So please accept my admiration, appreciation
and thanks.” – Pat Jackson, Professor, San Francisco State 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. This one is worth its salt. Every page is relevant and fascinating. When I find a chapter that refers to something we’ve done, I realize that every mistake we made was covered, if only we’d thought to read up beforehand.” – Genericfilms.com

“I read the thing like it was the Bible for almost a full year. I have never been to film school, but the knowledge it gave me was more than enough to ‘make it’ in the industry. I honestly cannot thank you enough.” – L.G.
