5.0 out of 5 starsStraightforward and incredibly useful
By Holly on April 6, 2013
Format: Perfect Paperback Verified Purchase
Inside Track for Independent Filmakers provides a broad context for understanding how to get your film seen, as well as providing a wealth of information in how-to steps. The book helps you switch back and forth from personal creative flow to how others will see your work in the context of the marketplace. Owning this book and referring to it often will allow you to get your creative brilliance before an audience. It is straightforward, incredibly honest, and well organized so that it is easy to use. I have already shared it with two aspiring and thankful filmmakers.

5.0 out of 5 starsBeen waiting for book like this
By rb on March 11, 2013
Format: Perfect Paperback
Can't say enough about how helpful this book is to me. As an indie filmmaker, the book has proved to be not only an insightful read, but a detailed analysis of so many important things to prepare for as I create my first feature film. Leipzig's straight forward no-nonsense approach spoke to me in a realistic and accessible way that didn't pull any punches. His insights helped me to think of things I had never thought of before, and gave me immediately applicable ideas that have since proved to be instrumental as I shape my film and my marketing ideas to get my film seen by others. With so many books out there on the indie filmmaking process that offer sugar coated whimsical musings on making movies, Inside Track was a refreshing guide to getting it done- and more importantly- getting it done right. Looking forward to much more from this author.

5.0 out of 5 starsSimple and to the point
By Matthew Morgan on July 7, 2013
Format: Perfect Paperback Verified Purchase
Great guide for someone planning to enter into their first film festival. The book is simply written without jargon. Chapters are often 2-3 pages long and simply define complex things that you'd never think about. I recommend this to any starting filmmaker.

5.0 out of 5 starsAmazing Info No One Teaches in Film Schools!
By J. Ancel on February 17, 2013
Format: Perfect Paperback
At the very beginning of the book, Adam Leipzig states that he is not going to teach you how to make a movie, but, rather, how to get your movie made. And this couldn't be more true. Everything in this book is real-world application of what needs to be done to get a film made— exactly what is NOT taught in film schools.

There is so much technical information from script to capital raising that this book should be essential reading for any filmmaker!

AWESOME BOOK!!

5.0 out of 5 starsClear, concise, compassionate advice
By Songlines on March 3, 2013
Format: Perfect Paperback
Whether your are new to the movie business, or have been around for many years, you will find this book very helpful. After reading it I've found myself quoting Adam's advice often. Film school students, film school drop outs, and film veterans can all learn something practical from this book that they can apply to their work; I have.

5.0 out of 5 starsGreat Book on Filmmaking!
By Hoy440 on February 22, 2013
Format: Perfect Paperback Verified Purchase
Great book! Especially loved the chapter on 'Cost' as it shows you the financing game from the investor POV in a way that artists can connect with. Insights like these and others packed throughout the book are inspiring, humbling and extremely valuable for both aspiring and working filmmakers. Highly recommended.
