They Discuss How They Got Started, Their Responsibilities, And Their Likes And Dislikes, And Describe A Typical Day. A Questionandanswer Section To Help Readers Determine If They Have The Motivation And Temperament Required For Filmmaking Follows The Anecdotal Text. Eight Lesson Plans Offer Fundamental Activities To Acquaint Students With Some Of The Visual, Staging, And Technical Skills Used In Making Movies. Basic Production Terms Are Defined And Brief Biographical Facts And Film Credits For Each Woman Are Presented. An Accompanying Dvd Contains Interviews And Film Clips. Although The Personal Reflections Are Engaging, The Text Is Poorly Organized And Confusing, Shifting Between An Unidentified Narrator And The Filmmakers Without Clearly Acknowledging Each Speaker.
