GIRL DIRECTOR's Interests
|
| General | Making a movie for less than it costs to attend one. Shooting on the fly and with your friends. Lo-fi filmmaking, the beauty of small gauge stocks, making movies and mistakes. | | Heroes | “By tracing the history of Hollywood as a Grrls town, by encouraging girls to experiment and create their own language for making movies, and by taking girls step by step through the mechanics of getting it all, GIRL DIRECTOR helps turn passion into possibility.”
—Kimberly Pierce, director of Boys Don’t Cry
“I wish there had been a book like this when I was a teenager. Making movies is a means for girls to express their own ideas and images, and be powerful. GIRL DIRECTOR is a true reminder of the possibilities.”
—Kim Gordon, bassist of Sonic Youth and founder of X-Girl |

About me:
Chock-full of fascinating photographs and colorful directives, GIRL DIRECTOR is an instruction manual, history lesson, scrapbook, and celebration of women and film rolled into one. Director and cinephile Andrea Richards all but hands the reader a camera as she raucously paves the way for young women to make their own films. Sharing tales of the coolest femme filmmakers from history and recounting advice from the best women directors now in the business, Richards explains step by step how anyone can make a film using a standard video camera. Covering such topics as screenwriting, storyboards, set design, editing, distribution, Claymation, music videos, film festivals, and the digital revolution, GIRL DIRECTOR is a must-have handbook for the aspiring auteur of any age.
A guide to do-it-yourself filmmaking from a female perspective, featuring accessible expert advice and a hip history of women in film.
A must-have reference (and an excellent gift) for tweens, teens, adults, or anyone interested in making movies.
Includes specifics on the who, what, where, and how of making low-budget videos and films.
