Sundance on a Budget
By an Amazon.com customer

	Canon HV20 3MP High Definition MiniDV Camcorder with 10x Optical Image Stabilized Zoom Buy new: $1,236.48 / Used from: $485.00 The best disposable HD camcorder you can buy. Great lens, great price, superb features. This should last you through your first feature film. Because some of the parts are made of plastic, it will be less durable than more expensive cameras, but the quality of the image is outstanding! mdubuque@yahoo.com. I'm here to help!
	Beach Dxa-6 Dual Xlr Adapter With Phantom power Buy new: $285.20 The weakest part of any first time filmmaker is invariably the low quality of the sound. The mini-jack inputs on prosumer HD camcorders just don't make the grade. Hook this puppy up with your Canon HV 20 and you will have both sound and video that can be taken seriously at Sundance, technically speaking. Now all you need is the killer content! mdubuque@yahoo.com.
	The Technique of Film and Video Editing, Fourth Edition: History, Theory, and Practice by Ken Dancyger Buy new: $35.07 / Used from: $24.98 This awesome book will help you master the science of film editing, with examples from the silent movies through MTV-style rapid edits! Watch relevant clips on youtube as you pore through this master work! A must for any serious student of film. One of the very few books you must have to greatly improve your chances of success at Sundance! mdubuque@yahoo.com. I'm here to help!
	Iraq in Fragments Buy new: $26.99 / Used from: $17.16 James Longley has only made three films in his life, all of them nominated for Oscars! He is a one-man crew. He does all his own filming and sound and editing and all the music as well! Just him! In the documentary division, this film was awarded Best Director, Best Cinematography and Best Editing at the Sundance in 2007. mdubuque@yahoo.com
	Shure SM11 Lavalier Microphone Buy new: $98.00 / Used from: $65.00 An excellent value in lapel microphones for interviewing talent in documentaries. Because it is not wireless, you avoid interference and complexity problems which are becoming more prevalent with so many more frequencies clogging the wireless spectrum. mdubuque@yahoo.com.
	Adobe Premiere Pro CS3 [OLD VERSION] Buy used from: $550.00 This is some excellent video editing software and can produce exceptionally professional, world class results. I much prefer its user interface to its competitor put out by Apple, namely Final Cut Pro. One excellent feature of this program is that it is pretty easy to email individual video clips to others for review, a real plus! Email me at mdubuque@yahoo.com.
	The Documentary Film Makers Handbook: A Guerilla Guide by Genevieve Jolliffe Buy new: $29.67 / Used from: $26.70 An outstanding book on all aspects of documentary film making including several chapters on how to get your film seen by the right distributors who can expose your masterwork to the world! All the books in this series are first rate; this particular one is for documentaries. mdubuque@yahoo.com. I'm here to help!
	The Videomaker Guide to Video Production, Fourth Edition by Videomaker Buy new: $16.47 / Used from: $12.46 From the editors of the renowned Videomaker magazine, this great book has concise chapters on all the various aspects of solid filmmaking including lighting, sound, post-production techniques and much more. Simplifies reams of jargon with clear, readable prose and scores of great photos and easy to understand diagrams. Questions? mdubuque@yahoo.com.
	How to Form a Nonprofit Corporation (book w/ CD-Rom) by Anthony Mancuso Attorney Buy used from: $23.09 If you are seeking outside funding to get your film rolling, you know that most funders require their donations be made to a tax-exempt entity. One alternative is to form such an entity yourself. This book helps you do so. mdubuque@yahoo.com.
	Sony High Definition Minidv Videocassette (2-Pack) Buy new: $20.89 / Used from: $31.33 High quality and reliable, reasonably priced. mdubuque@yahoo.com.
