Making Your First Film $25.69 Making Your First Film is a concise and meaty resource that will pay for itself a thousand times over. It doesnt wax eloquent about things you dont have time to read. Its not an all encompassing treaty on filmmaking because reading text books wont get your film made. And it includes something that most books dont; the owner of the book receives THREE FREE emails and/or telephone contacts with our Hollywood Production Company, Castlight Pictures. We will take your emails and talk to you on the telephone to get you started. You will receive expertise from our producers/directors and writers. What book gives you that? Youve heard the adage in one of Tiger Woods commercials that success is 90 perspiration and 10 inspiration. Well, filmmaking is about the same ratio. Darwinian odds are at play more than film schools and longwinded books want to admit. Its more about doing than knowing. Most people can figure out how to write, get written or buy a script. What they cant figure out is how to get the money to make their film and what to do next. Regardless if its a short, a feature or a documentary only those who know how to mine their own resources and contacts to raise capital are going to be filmmakers. Anybody can write a script and hope Hollywood comes calling. I cant tell you how many scripts and people with them are out there. All waiting for an Agent, an Option, a Sale or Film Deal to propel them into what they really want to do: make films This book is different. If you dont want to work hard, and I mean hard, at making your film, go buy a treaty on filmmaking, hang out at Starbucks and tap on your laptop along with the others. However, if youre ready to make things happen, today, then lets get started. Author: Robinson, David C.

The Psychopath in Film $95.59 The Psychopath in Film examines the cognitive and emotional proficiency of psychopaths at surviving the goodness juggernaut using a model that takes into account three different levels of cognition and two levels of emotion. The prominent force of the soulless creature created in the cinema schemes as a connoisseur of evil. However, the psychopath must work at making evil work. Wayne Wilson assembles the cognitive and emotional fundamentals essential for evils success. Cognitively, the psychopaths must possess the ability to maintain a calculating secrecy, they must harbor a flair for misdirection, and they must choose freely to abdicate responsibility while victimizing others. Emotionally, psychopaths should not feel remorse for their actions, and may benefit from the capacity to experience exuberance over their wicked ways, which tends to be the most compelling trait of psychopaths in films. This study delves into these tendencies as represented in the characters created in movies from classics through modern film, focusing on the question of the psychopaths possession of the aptitude to commit undue harm.
