This is a great book that explains on a very basic level, what goes into taking a script and turning it into a movie. The crew has been preparring for months the set, props, costumes, and special effects. The cast of actors and actrresses are well rehearesed and have their lines memorized. Light! Cameras! Action! This book is fun to read because it explains the movie making process in basic terms and has bright, colorful pictures to go along wiht the story.
