You could have all the best intentions in the world for your first film, but these five common mistakes are definitely going to trip you up.

Sometimes making a film looks really easy on the outside. It seems like you can do anything, but, in reality, some of the most common mistakes are preventing new filmmakers from producing successful films.

Filmmaking Books I Recommend:

► Film Directing: Shot by Shot - https://amzn.to/3p6F5g6
► On Directing Film by David Mamet - https://amzn.to/3DYcDDs
► The Filmmaker's Handbook - https://amzn.to/3cRFxJF
► Cinematography: Theory and Practice: Image Making for Cinematographers and Directors - https://amzn.to/3HSfeBv
► Save The Cat! The Last Book on Screenwriting You'll Ever Need - https://amzn.to/3p3cBE9

No one is born knowing how to make a film - these are the most common (in my experience) mistakes we find upon the way.
