Independent is not meant to mean unprofessional

The only enjoyment I found in this program was in reconstructing the college films the author participated in for class. This sounds like the work of a film buff who's always wanted to be a director but has yet to work on a professional set. This is not a program about independent filmmaking. The early chapter declares it's all about money - the rest of the book teaches nothing about money. But you'll learn exactly where to set your margins in your script-writing software and know to be cautious of romances between your cast members.

This script has not been reviewed by an editor. Not a professional editor. Perhaps an "independent" editor, for a college project.

I regret this purchase and the time spent listening to it.
