Small gauge film refers to formats such as 8m, Super 8 and 9.5mm. This book offers an introduction to the amateur maker of film comedies, thrillers, and sci-fi, recording the ambitions and achievements of enthusiasts struggling to emulate the mainstream, and tells their own stories, armed only with limited resources, but endless initiative.
This book focuses on amateur fiction film-making
What do you understand by the term ''home movie''? Do you imagine images of babies-on-the lawn, sandcastles on the beach, or travels with the family? Did you know that amateur filmmakers have also explored fictional genres as diverse and fascinating as their professional counterparts, that specific amateur film studios have risen and fallen, or that household-name directors owe their origins and inspirations to the amateur film movement? Across a range of settings from the Canadian north-west to the Russian far-east, this book offers an introduction to the amateur maker of film comedies, thrillers, adaptations and sci-fi. It records the ambitions and achievements of enthusiasts struggling to emulate the mainstream and tell their own stories, armed with limited resources and endless initiative.
