Reviews

"Every line producer and UPM should read this book and keep it as a reference. It covers "soup to nuts" about production dept infrastructure. Schools that teach filmmaking should make this mandatory reading. This is what's under-the-hood of the car. With our industry growing so fast, we are faced with more people in key positions with less mentored experience. Even for an experienced soul like myself, it's a great resource."
Cleve Landsberg, Producer & DGA UPM

"This book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in entering the film and television industry. The information divulged in this text is incredibly thorough and accessible. It is written with both advice from experts and foresight to prevent mistakes. This book needs to be in the back pocket of all recent film school graduates and those entering the 'industry.'"
Jim Peterson, Director of Theatre and Film, Carmel High School and Adjunct Professor, Ball State University
