Brilliant!!.......2000-09-13
This book is the essence of the creative process. Broken down into the three distinctive methods of these extraordinary designers, it is a guide for anyone who is in need of some creativity. This book is a catalyst for visual exploration. It comes highly recommended for not only students and professors, but for anybody who could use a little creativity. It's well written and well designed, two things that seem to be mutually exclusive in graphic design books these days. Kudos to Ms. Anderson!
great creative insights.......2000-06-22
Incredible insights into visual communications by the three authors. Great specific ideas that can help anyone's graphic design solutions, illustrations, or art direction. A must have for any visual communications professional.

Book Description
Five keys to creating authentic, distinctive work, whether you are a student, professional or simply love making films on your own
For Creative Filmmaking from the Inside Out, three professors at the renowned University of Southern California School of Cinema-Television interviewed fifteen outstanding filmmakers, then distilled their insights into the "Five I's" of creativity. Learn how to:
• Uncover your unique creative voice (Introspection)
• Work from real-life observations and experience (Inquiry)
• Draw on your nonconscious wells of creativity (Intuition)
• Strengthen your creative collaborations (Interaction)
• Communicate at the deepest level with your audience (Impact)
This comprehensive approach provides practical exercises that will enrich and transform your work, whether you are looking for a story idea, lighting a set, editing a scene or selecting a music cue.
The participating filmmakers, who have collectively won or been nominated for 39 Oscars and 27 Emmys, are:
Anthony Minghella, writer-director (The English Patient); Kimberly Peirce, writer-director (Boys Don't Cry); John Lasseter, writer-director-producer (Toy Story); John Wells, writer-producer (ER); Hanif Kureishi, writer (My Beautiful Laundrette); Pamela Douglas, writer (Between Mother and Daughter); Renee Tajima-Pe?a, director-producer (My America...or, Honk If You Love Buddha); Ismail Merchant, producer (The Remains of the Day); Jeannine Oppewall, production designer (L.A. Confidential); Conrad L. Hall, cinematographer (American Beauty); Kathy Baker, actor (Picket Fences); Walter Murch, sound designer-editor (Apocalypse Now); Lisa Fruchtman, editor (The Right Stuff); Kate Amend, editor (Into the Arms of Strangers); and James Newton Howard, composer (The Sixth Sense).
Customer Reviews:
An inspiration for teachers and students.......2003-12-24
I teach a seminar for teenagers in digital video. When I started designing the curriculum, it was mostly a "how-to" kind of thing. After reading this book, I changed the whole focus of the seminar. I asked the kids to look inside themselves and think about what they, personally, had to say. I said, "You are like kids who have been given a big box of crayons. Do you want to scribble on the wall, or do you want draw something special from your heart?" When they turned in their treatments for their video projects, they had taken the ideas of this book to heart.
This book should be required reading for anyone who teaches filmmaking or is starting out as a filmmker. It will get them on the right track!
Creative Filmmaking From The Inside Out.......2003-05-27
"Creative Filmmaking From The Inside Out," is a brilliant book! This book utilizes industry experts, who through their own experiences and examples, explain the creative process of filmmaking from concept though completion.
At the end of each chapter, the authors outline suggestions and exercises to evoke the reader's own creativity and abilities.
I highly recommend this book to anyone that is either interested in filmmaking or is already involved in a film career, as it is always fascinating to see how successful people approach their own creative problems. Creativity is the one commodity which Hollywood is always looking for, but for which there are no formulas.
Inspiring!.......2003-05-06
Inspiring! This book reminds you that the most important thing you have to contribute as an artist is already within you. Essential reading for anyone in any creative endeavor. Buy this book and fly!
A fantastic, completely original approach.......2003-02-28
This book is a hybrid of interview collections and workbook exercises, designed to help filmmakers with their creative processes, not using the dumbed-down how-to-manual approach that so many filmmaking books employ, but in an intelligent and subtle way that engages and challenges the reader. These authors have assembled a formidable list of filmmakers -- the brains and souls behind The English Patient, Toy Story, E.R., Boys Don't Cry, many more -- and asked them more than the usual-suspect kind of questions, and by doing so have managed to go deeply into the creative process. The book interweaves the interviews with anecdotes, proverbs, and a group of creativity exercises which are several levels above the kind of artists' self-help books that have sometimes insulted our intelligence in the past. Ever wonder how Anthony Minghella thought of the opening shot for The English Patient? Or how Merchant Ivory get those stellar casts? This book actually tells you things you want to know, and then challenges you to go out and make a movie.

Customer Reviews:
DON'T THESE PEOPLE KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT CRYPTOGRAPHY?.......2006-06-21
Print is so small and in a serif font that the only way I can work the puzzles is to enlarge the pages to 200% with my copying machine. This is absurd.
Fun Cryptograms.......2006-06-14
The cryptograms in "Made You Laugh" are based on funny celebrity, film & movie quotes. They are of the easier variety, and would be excellent for people who are beginners to this type of puzzle, &/or for those who are more experienced to do when you don't want to have to think too much.
The only "problem" I had with this particular book is that the font size is way too small, making it difficult to write the solutions in above the appropriate letters. It was surprising to me that the font was small, given that there is an awful lot of blank space on each page - so it didn't need to be that small.
I liked the x-tra "gift" you get with this book - a whoopie cushion is attached to the back cover. I thought this was really funny, and made sense given that this book is a collection of funny sayings.
Overall, I would recommend this book to those who enjoy crytograms - but just be aware that the font size is relatively small, and the puzzles are of the easier variety.
Mixed case and variable width.......2006-06-01
As I see others have mentioned, mixed case in the book is a real problem. There is the issue of single letter words- there are only two, one is always capitalized and one isn't. Well, duh. I don't want hints at all and the hints were so imbedded in the puzzle that they were unavoidable. I want a challenge, something that when I complete it with no hints I can say to myself "Wow, that was a tough one but I figured it out. I LIKE ME! I'M SMART!" I had that reaction to about three puzzles in the book, mostly due to the mixed case problem. And as others have mentioned, not only was it mixed case but it used a variable width font, so words could be itjitl for "people" and you could fit about three of the letters in "people" under the whole word. Basically this book wasn't user tested and it broke the standards for these puzzles. Standards are there for a reason.
And I still don't get why they think that people who do cryptograms are interested in whoopie cushions. If it hadn't been the only cryptogram book in the store I wouldn't have bought it.
Fun puzzles BUT..........2006-03-27
I really enjoyed the puzzles, but I agree with a couple of other reviewers that the letters are way too small and close together; it makes it very difficult and takes away from the fun. I liked the upper and lower case though; it provides extra hints. Had the spacing been more pencil friendly, I would have given it 5 stars.
where's the letters or find me a magnifying glass.......2006-03-14
i agree with serious lee from california. the letters are lower case and toooo close together. save your $ and get the cryptogram magazines found at your local newstand. iam amazed at the 4 & 5 stars for a tiny over-priced book withtheletterstooclosetogether.
