Introduction by Roger Corman. In the medium of film, the most important years of a filmmaker's life are in the beginning, when young directors can explore and expand their artistic visions and styles without the constraints of studio or marketplace demands. Such raw artistry, though fascinating, rarely reaches the public eye - until now. This book tells the story of six hot young directors and their films through commentary, interviews and an exploration of individual approaches. A glimpse of the future of the moving image. Free DVD included.
For the person who simply likes unique films - this was well worth buying. A great behind the scenes look into how student films are made and the challenges they face and overcome. A nice variety; action, laugh-out-loud dark comedy, poignant drama. I wish there were more student film festival books/DVD's like this.
Wow. Eye-opening.

Worth reading to view another perspective of a film festival. Written like a documentary with interviews from participants in the festival. Good for other student filmmakers and anyone who wants to become a filmmaker. The dvd alone has enough to give you an eyeful of original filmmaking.
