"Like any good survivalist, Kelley Baker doesn’t beat around the bush - he gets right down to the nitty-gritty heart of the matter right way.  His 12 chapter Survival Guide is a compact, no-holds-barred 12-step program to creating what Baker calls "The Extreme No-Budget Film."  Baker is on fire about making films."

(Excerpt)

I am the poster boy for bad decision making in the Independent Film world! 

I have made eight short films, three features and a couple of documentaries, along with a ton of corporate videos, and commercials.   I have whored myself on other people’s movies for the last 20+ years.  There are certain truths I have learned, and certain things and people I shouldn’t have listened to.  I have messed up my life financially, emotionally, and probably physically and it’s all been for my love of movies.  My movies.  

What makes me angry is the state of INDEPENDENT films. The independent film industry is no longer even remotely independent.  It’s been mainstreamed by Hollywood and is now simply another over-hyped product. 

"Angry or not, Kelley Baker knows his stuff, and he tells it all in this book that’s part indie film war story, part instructional manual for true independents, and part furious rant.  It’s always entertaining, and it might just tick you off, but – most important – the advice contained within these pages will help you get your film made."

Too many people finance their films on credit cards, and they go broke!  Their films end up not getting a distributor and they’re left paying 30% interest on a film that no one wants.  Heed the words of noted financial consultant and former NBA player, Charles Barkley, "Credit cards exist to keep poor people poor." 

DON’T USE YOUR DAMN CREDIT CARDS FOR ANYTHING!!!

 

"Kelley Baker is the genuine article, a skilled craftsman and a passionate artist who is committed to sharing his love of true and independent film to whoever is lucky enough to cross his path, he is to be listened to"

Bill Dever
Indie Producer, Founder of The Indy Film Co-op and fan of Kelley’s Dog Moses

What I have learned is that if you do something, you need to go all the way.  Go big, or go home! 

So, read this book, and if you have the guts, you too can become a true "Independent" filmmaker and show your films all over the world.  Or you can be a sell out and go to Hollywood and make Police Academy 54.  It makes no difference to me.

 

“Kelley Baker’s energy and “anger” burns up the theater.  He visited Columbia College Film and Video Department in 2005 and gave a presentation to about 200 students from Screenwriting and Sound classes.  The students loved his wit and humor and most importantly, he inspired them with the possibilities for their own films.”
