A True Master Class

In the bookcase of filmmaking related books this is one I would recommend not only to filmlovers but also as a serious contribution for mentors in the area of filmmaking as a subject.

"Moviemakers' Master Class: Private Lessons from the World's Foremost Directors"
by Laurent Tirard


A filmmaker turned journalist for Studio Magazine, Tirard has assembled a group of interviews with some of the most highly regarded directors in the movie industry. Unlike other interviews he challenges his interviewees to reveal some of their directing methods on location, before and after, how they complete their work. Doing so the author has given us a vivid yet clear picture of how differently filmmakers accomplish what they started, and it's also up to the reader to find a personal favourite you can relate to.

If you want to find out about
Jean Pierre Jeunet's theory of camera movement, whom Scorsese admires, why Tim Burton prefers wide lenses, the intensive Oliver Stone, John Woo's use of music in certain scenes, how David Cronenberg and David Lynch's became directors full time, how The Coen brothers writes and exchanges roles on set, Lars Von Trier's take on Dogme 95, Jean-Luc Goddard's theory of filmmaking and much more.
