Ask Questions First, Shoot Later





Ten Things Producers and Directors Must Know, an article read from an old LIFT Magazine, before it became Film Print - a newsletter about filmmaking and the independent film community of Toronto. This is mainly a director's perspective concerning how to vet each other and draw out any concerns as each participant might want a project to continue and might want to respect each other but would prefer to draw out any conflicts or cross purposes that might emerge when it is too late to change course.  I actually got an interesting hang-up call the day this issue arrived in the mail (likely from a fellow member of the organization whose clash had inspired much of the piece).  Just found this while sorting through old boxes and decided to read it.
