Reviews

I wish I had the book “Just Shoot It!” before starting my first feature. A definite recommend for anyone looking for a comprehensive, reader-friendly book that breaks down the filmmaking process from A to Z. Nnegest Likké - Writer/Director “Phat Girlz” I read a number of so-called "Getting Started" books only to find that they were either dull or difficult to understand." Finding "Just Shoot It!" was like someone opened a window. It's not just a comprehensive reference of everything you need to know, it's written in a simple straight-forward manner that is also breezy and witty. Don't make a movie without reading this book. John Nolte - Writer/Director “Beautiful Loser” The best overall film book I have read. Curtis’ positive, uncluttered, empowering message is combined with the practical and technical information you need to become a successful filmmaker. He peels back the notion that you have to be connected or know someone in power to make a great film. “Just Shoot It!” will inspire you. No matter how small your budget; no matter how simple your equipment; his message brightly illuminates the road to making the film of your dreams, the one the world will respond to. Cindy Jones - Writer/Director/Producer CINDIANA JONES FILMS "Just Shoot It!" is written with the true passion of an independent filmmaker willing to let others learn from his own experience and help them cut to the chase. It will not only serve budding filmmakers as a primer on what will help them assemble their first film, but it is so infused with the power of positive thinking that the encouraging words will cheer would-be filmmakers on to successfully completing projects and realizing that they are, in fact, now filmmakers. You are what you do, so if you want to be a filmmaker, just shoot it! Demetrio Cuzzocrea - Award Winning Documentarian/Actor/Screenwriter
