Customer Reviews
Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - The title nails it.
If you're a filmmaker, great. If you're a filmmaker with some tools, you're the MAN. Or WOMAN. Either way, if you find yourself short on cash but long on toolbench, with the exception of a digital camera, there's not much in this book you won't be able to build yourself. Stabilizers, mounts, dollies, light stands, etc. I'm keeping my copy.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Good For Reference
Has some good stuff in it, lacks in the quality(of the DIY projects inside), but great for blue prints and basic ideas. Most of them can be easily changed and made into more useful, and better quality Equipment! Good buy over all!!!!!!!!



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Home Depot must love this guy.
Nuts and bolts filmmaking is an excellent resource for students and no-budget filmmakers. If you're prepared to use your hands and don't mind that your rigging may not have the pro look to it, the techniques in this book are solid.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Nuts and Bolts Filmmaking
I wanted to make a movie with a camcorder I got for christmas but I did not really know where to start.
I saw this book on the shelf and thought I might get a few ideas.
Well, there's so much eye-opening information here and easy explanations, it made it easy to understand.
This is my first attempt at movies.
Some chapters were too technical for my needs, but I was able to use a bunch of the projects like "the sqeezer". I recommend this to anyone getting started in movie making.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - thumbs up from a camera guy
Having worked on a number of professional films, this book is the real deal.
Clearly the author has met a lot of challenges we all face on-set. While my
experience is primary limited to the Camera Department, the author seems to
have consulted others and included information from nearly every department.
Unfortunately, there isn't much information on cinematography that I didn't
already know. Thanks to Mr. Rahmel for writing this fine book. Hopefully the
next version will include more DP stuff.
