When it comes to producing, no one speaks with more authority than Lloyd Kaufman, founder of the longest-running independent film studio, Troma Entertainment, which is celebrating its 35th year! In his fifth and latest book, Produce Your Own Damn Movie! (Focal Press, $19.95, September 09), Kaufman shares his experience and gems of wisdom regarding the best ways to seek out investors, scout locations, hire crew and cast talent, navigate legalities, and stay within your budget. Featuring tips from some of the finest producers in the industry (Mark Damon, James Gunn, Mark Harris, Tery Jones, Brad Kevoy, Stephen Paul, and more!), this book gives filmmakers practical tools for getting a movie shoot started, keeping it afloat and seeing it through to the end.
Filled with candid interviews, tips, and tricks-of-the-trade throughout the book, Kaufman illustrates the many techniques you can employ to produce your own damn movie. This volume reveals the secrets of producing a low-budget independent film. Covering everything about production from the initial movie idea, all the way through pre-production and up to the first day of principal photography (including budget concerns to production-damaging acts of God), you'll get the inside scoop to producing your own damn movie. Produce Your Own Damn Movie! will guide you on the journey to:
- Maximize production values with a minimal budget
- Scout locations
- Different producing models
- Develop business plans
- e-selling your movie
Delightfully entertaining and hysterical in tone, filmmakers and producers alike won't be able to put this invaluable book down!
Lloyd Kaufman is one of the very few genuine auteur filmmakers. He has written, produced, and/or directed 25 films including The Toxic Avenger, Terror Firmer, Tromeo and Juliet, and Poultrygeist: Night of the Chicken Dead. Kaufman is president of the world-famous Troma Entertainment, the oldest, and arguably, the longest-running truly independent film studio in history. He is also the president of IFTA (Independent Film & Television Alliance), whose members produce more than 400 independent films and countless hours of television programming each year and generate more than $4 billion in distribution revenues annually.
