  • Question for Noah

    Posted by James Jackson on August 17, 2006 at 6:15 pm

    Hey Noah,

    I read a little bit of you bio and you are where I want to be. I just bought a DVX100 yesterday because I am an inspiring filmmaker. I also plan on starting my own production company and direct commercials. What advice do you have for me on starting a company from start to finish and also directing movies. I appreciate your time. Thanks

    James

    Hi James-

    Best of luck to you- the DVX100 is a great tool. Just practice a ton and watch a lot of movies and above all have something interesting to say. These books might help a bit too:

    “The Ultimate Film Festival Survival Guide” by Chris Gore, 3rd Edition.
    A good introduction to many of the festivals out there, with some background data on the majors.

    “From Reel to Deal” by Dov S-S Simens.
    Bare-knuckle look at every step of making and selling a low budget indie from the the creator of the two-day film school.

    “The Complete Independent Movie Marketing Handbook” by Mark Steven Bosko.
    An insider’s guide to the many different ways to turn a profit from your movie.

    “Hollywood Creative Directory”
    Comprehensive industry standard book listing every soul in Hollywood you might want to network with.
