Lloyd Kaufman's Make Your Own Damn Movie [5 Discs]

Synopsis of Lloyd Kaufman's Make Your Own Damn Movie [5 Discs]

In a career spanning four decades, Lloyd Kaufman of Troma Team Pictures has been making low-budget movies that have been able to compete for space on multiplex screens and video-store shelves alongside expensive Hollywood blockbusters, and he's proved that the independent filmmaker with a small bankroll can succeed under the right circumstances. Now Kaufman shares his secrets in Make Your Own Damn Movie, an instructional DVD box set that serves as an audio-visual companion to his book of the same name. Kaufman breaks down the basics of writing a script, raising money, finding a cast, setting up production, putting your project on film, editing and preparing it for release, distributing to theaters and film festivals, and much more. Joining Kaufman are a number of other noted filmmakers who've risen from the independent ranks, including George A. Romero (Dawn of the Dead), Trey Parker and Matt Stone (South Park), John G. Avildsen (Rocky), John Badham (Saturday Night Fever), Herschell Gordon Lewis (Blood Feast), Larry Cohen (It's Alive!), and more. ~ Mark Deming, All Movie Guide
