- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5This production bible is a thorough and grounded exposition on low budgeting film production, and should be required reading for any indie developers with filmmaking aspirations. It not only demystifies the operations of film production from beginning to end, but saves stakeholders from unnecessary heartache, and instills confidence to execute a vision beyond initial expectations. It is the type of resource that you will be referring to for many years. Thank you Maureen and everyone involved in this book!
