The Angry Filmmaker Survival Guide Part One: Making The Extreme No Budget Film

Kelley Baker is the Angry Filmmaker. But his independent films are not angry, theyâ‚¬re honest. Heâ‚¬s angry at the state of independent film. For Baker, itâ‚¬s about telling the story, not what actors are starring in it.

Kelley Baker worked in Hollywood for 20 years. Heâ‚¬s well known for being the sound designer on six of Gus Van Sant's feature films, including My Own Private Idaho, Goodwill Hunting and Finding Forrester. Heâ‚¬s also made numerous award winning short films and 3 of his own independent feature films. The latest, Kicking Bird, was made with a budget of $6000 and has played to international audiences.

Each year, Kelley takes his van out on the road to show his films and conduct workshops on independent filmmaking. Here, with all his attitude, is the wisdom of an Angry Filmmaker, gained the hard way, through experience.

â‚¬Å“One of the best books on making your way through the independent filmmaking jungle with justifiably-angry filmmaker Kelley Baker as your top-notch guide: Funny, profane and committed to telling the unblemished truth. Donâ‚¬t make your next movie until youâ‚¬ve read this terrific book.â‚¬Â

â‚¬Å“This book should be handed to every kid starting film school or every kid that says "Screw film school, I'm going to make a picture. NOW."

Jim LeBrecht
Berkeley Sound Artists (and all around good guy)

"I'm impressed as hell by the amount of solid, practical advice that Kelley Baker was able to squeeze into his new book. No, it won't write your script for you, teach you how to operate a Steadicam, or find you an agent. What it will do is show you how to get your movie made, and made well--even on a budget that's slimmer than Olive Oyl's waist."
