By
Ian Lewis, Freelance producer, director and writer. He runs The Farnham Film Company (www.farnfilm.com) where he has made over 300 programmes.
Description
The world of digital television means hundreds of channels, all trying to be different, all looking for product. But the overall international
production spend has scarcely increased. Guerrilla TV shows how to make high quality programs at budget levels which were previously
thought impossible, and how to make a living doing it.
This book is about empowerment; about making things happen. It is packed full
of ideas, inspiration and help. The author, an experienced director/producer/writer, provides an insight into the 'real world' of television
program making today. He uses many examples of how different low budget programs have been handled successfully with very professional
results.
Guerrilla TV assumes that you are starting with little more than a desk and a telephone, in a world where everything has to
be paid for. The mantra running throughout this book is: 'think before you spend'. Do not use money (of which you have very little) as
a substitute for thought (which is free). And the other mantra: 'in the end, you don't save money by scrimping!'
Read this book - take
the advice offered and watch your career take off!
