This nifty little book takes you on a guided tour, through the hurdles of directing a film - from the earliest preparations up until you are finally ready to shout action.
As a rookie, who never directed more than a few friends, I found this book easy to read and filled with wisdom and easy to follow steps and guidelines.
Definitely a must read for anyone embarking on the path to become a director.
