The Guerilla Film Makers Handbook and Producers Toolkit is the ultimate guide to low-budget movie-making in the UK and around the world. It contains three major sections:. Anatomy of a Movie - A step-by-step guide to all aspects of production, from copyright law to casting agents, direction to distribution, cash sources to stunts. We ask the questions to which, YOU, the Producer, need to know the answers.
Case Studies - The authors tell the story of how they made two low-budget feature films, worked with Oscar-nominated actors and Harrison Ford's brother, received a royal audience at the Palace, became a target for Turkish terrorists and ended up in a police cell - yet lived to tell the tale. Plus detailed studies of new British film makers, from micro-budget to mega-budget, revealing how they did it.
Producers Toolkit - The legal documentation required to produce your own low-budget feature films, plus blank forms and a complete budget breakdown. Crammed with 'hot tips', form documents, contracts and all the information you need to know, this lavishly-illustrated book explodes industry myths and is the ideal companion for every independent producer.

Work Description
The best-selling low-budget filmmaker's bible in the UK has now, at long last, been totally revamped for the American market. The two authors have interviewed hundreds of film industry insiders, resulting in, without doubt, the most comprehensive, entertaining, information-packed book available in America on how to produce a low-budget movie.
The book has 3 main sections: Anatomy of a Movie, Case Studies, and The Toolkit. Anatomy of a Movie features in-depth, candid interviews with a huge cast of people already working in the film industry - from script readers to bank managers; from casting directors to costume providers; and from sound mixers to negative cutters. Case Studies tells the stories of a selection of low-budget movies, and how they were made. These include Chris and Genevieve's own films, as well as international successes like The Blair Witch Project and Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels. The Toolkit is an amazing resource for new filmmakers, incorporating a huge range of sample legal contracts and agreements, as well as templates for production forms like locations checklists, shooting schedules, and call sheets.
