Rush Hamden has put together a unique comprehensive DVD filmmaker's tutorial. As a reference point, I've been a copywriter for major ad agencies and am now a developing filmmaker/screenwriter. Rush's DVD series is incredibly organized with attention to detail and ego removed. It's obvious a lot of time has been put into the production of this series. He has filled in several gaps of my guerrilla style of film school education. I hope he gets rich off these videos because he deserves it. He has helped accelerate my film production learning at morph speed. In the process he has demystified the shooting, lighting, and composition techniques and yet has kept it interesting with his soothing voice-over. Throw out most of your film books. Save half the time and get these DVDs. You get the sense of a teacher who's heart is in the right place and is earnest in helping the viewer become a better all-around filmmaker and screenwriter.
