thank you stu! [Posted on 2008-08-06]
this book was a very welcome change to all the theory books i've been reading on directing & cinematography.
the author writes in a very direct, concise, and clear manner... he's even got a real sense of humor. he knows his target audience, and he communicates very effectively to us, because he's really not that different than us.
he has tons of examples, pics, practical explanations, tables, reference material, and even a DVD-ROM that came with the book loaded with more writing, project files, media files, and so on.
this is the most practical and accessible book on indie filmmaking i've ever read.
definitely recommend!

I haven't even finished reading it and I don't know how I ever lived without it.
Simply Essential [Posted on 2008-09-02]
Simply an essential part of the aspiring film-makers arsenal. Stu not only goes into a decent amount of depth on the art of film-making (and compositing), but injects it all with a great sense of humour (which really helps to keep it easy to read).
A must read! [Posted on 2008-09-08]
Very informative, a mmust read for anybody doing video work. Many valuable tips and info to help you start and finish your production.
A Must Have [Posted on 2008-10-17]
I have already completed one truly independent feature film, and I overlooked this book. After being turned away by festival after festival, I picked up THE DV REBEL GUIDE and realized many errors I made that could have changed the overall production value of my feature. As if this wasn't insight enough, Stu Maschiwitz gave me new ways to fix my work, and perhaps turn it into a proper money-making product. This book also offers so many insights into an overall one-man production process that anyone who that wants to buck the system and make their own movie ought to read. If you are Final Cut Pro or After Effects user, you will be relieved to find application specific workarounds and hints that bring your hard fought work into the professional world. Stu has mapped out a strong, clear and effective production pipeline from preproduction through to final render. THE DV REBEL's GUIDE is worth every cent, and shouldn't be ignored.
