Together, Andrena Finlay and Sue Milliken have a double lifetime’s experience producing feature films, television dramas, documentaries and short films in Australia. They have written this book to give aspiring entrants to the Australian film industry a practical, hands-on idea of what is involved in turning the ‘light bulb’ idea into a cinema experience. This book opens the door to the film business from the perspective of the producer. It is their perspective, from their experience. This book cannot produce the film for you, but it can help you make more informed decisions than if you had not read it.
Such a great book. It really helped me demystify the esoteric art of the Producer. Well, most of it. I’ll have to read it several times and put it into use to really learn it but before this I had ZERO idea about the massive role of the producer. My hat’s off to both Andrena Finlay and Sue Milliken for explaining everything in both detail and understandable manner!
