This is the one youve been looking for.By BrentThis book should be mandatory reading for anyone -- from executive producer to production assistant -- stepping onto a movie set of any size. I have never seen such a complete; thorough and thoughtful explanation of every single role and piece of paper associated with a film and all its moving parts; large to small. Its written in a casual yet precise style; which makes for terrific reference and enjoyable reading. You can read it as merely education; or use it and its many checklists and schedules as a reference; on your desk and open at all times. The mistakes and mishaps that can be avoided by reading this book are innumberable. I am so grateful to have found this book; it is worth its weight in gold. Thank you; Deborah!0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Organized well and is a great business outline for productions in entertainment.By R. McClintickI love how this book is set up.

Very thorough!By David FinebergI have been around the Motion Picture Film Industry for the past 30+ years; mostly in Post Production Film Laboratories. After reading Ms. Patzs book; I found out how much is involved in putting together T.V. shows; Motion Pictures and Documentaries. She compares the differences between performing a function using motion picture film and its surrounding duties and doing it digital and its surrounding duties. I; also; enjoyed her stories before the start of each chapter; very entertaining. I highly recommend this book.
