For all those indie filmmakers who wonder about jumping into the "feature filmmaking" pond, here's an exciting catalog of movies that Schmidt made, by hook or crook--26 no/low-budget features in 40 years (SEE THEM NOW--this SPECIAL 2nd Printing includes HOT LINKS to Schmidt's entire 26-features Filmography presented here!). Budgets range right down to $39 for the DV movie THE HIGDEN MAN (see FOREWORD). What matters is that if "filmmaking" is your dream, hopefully this little booklet will form a basis for your future efforts (if HE can do it so can U!). By examining the one-page entries (and WATCHING THE TRAILERS and FREE FULL MOVIES) the reader should get a sense of Schmidt's creative priorities--an improv approach to actors/non-actors, on-the-spot story-telling, editorial exploration, and the nuts and bolts of no/low-budget producing. Hopefully, the take-away from this "used-car filmmaking" book is that ANYONE CAN BECOME A FEATURE FILMMAKER. With DV/digital moviemaking equipment-many features here were shot in DV--artists can now make their movies with affordable HD cameras or phones, shooting 4K video and editing apps. And with determination, you can start to compile your own catalog of completed works, hopefully earning a trip to Park City/Sundance and beyond.
