Description

Managing chaos?

Film producing is a life embracing absolute chaos!

Film fans the world over know everything about what an actor or actress does or what a director does, but have absolutely no clue what a producer does to produce the film, except at best, thinking that the producer finances the film with his or her own money. Ha! Ha! and Ha! as Laurel and Hardy would say.

Based on the author’s 25 years in the business, you will learn in a humorous way the seriousness of what exactly we do in our chaotic lifestyle: the good, the frustrating, the beautiful, the bad, and the ugly. My faults, failures, and successes. In the end, you will appreciate films more and enjoy an entertainingly good laugh from my crazy adventures in managing and embracing chaos.

A life filled with the best laid plans just getting laid!

All this is told as a spiritual journey for the soul, for that is what film producing is about . . . spirit making better decisions when confronting extreme pressures in a fast changing world.

Memoirs to live, laugh, and learn by . . . and leadership lessons thrown in.
